OS vendors release openEuler-powered commercial editions
The openEuler community has released its first long-term support (LTS) edition, openEuler 20.03 LTS, at the Huawei Developer Conference 2020 (Cloud) on March 27, 2020. This marks a new milestone for openEuler, an open source, free Linux distribution platform.
The openEuler 20.03 LTS edition supports Kunpeng and x86 processor architectures. It is expected to unlock performance improvements of 10% to 100%; slash startup time by 35%, and reduce memory resource consumption by 68%.
Huawei has also joined with four OS vendors, Kylinsoft, iSoft, Uniontech, and the Institute of Software Chinese Academy of Sciences (ISCAS), to announce commercial editions powered by openEuler.
- Kylinsoft’s Kylin Server OS based on openEuler kernels is designed for multicore heterogeneous computing scenarios, and targets processing for mission-critical services and workloads.
- ISoft has launched the iSoft Server OS V5.1 for Kunpeng, its first commercial release based on openEuler.
- Uniontech released deepinEuler V1.0, a Kunpeng-based OS that leverages the new features of the Kunpeng processor to deliver compelling performance. Uniontech plans ongoing upgrades of deepinEuler to enhance the Kunpeng ecosystem, and drive adoption of deepinEuler in more scenarios.
- ISCAS released its EulixOS Server 1.0.
The openEuler community is taking shape with its secretariat, technical committee, and security committee already in operation, Huawei said. To date, community participants have applied for and established more than 30 project teams.
On September 18, 2019, Huawei, as the founder and driving force of openEuler, announced its operating system (OS) would go open source at https://openeuler.org/en/ along with a development plan. December 31, 2019 saw the openEuler source code officially released. By March 25, 2020, the ISO had seen 5,479 downloads, and received 5,324 code contributions by 220 developers.
The openEuler community is committed to training, improving developers’ capabilities, and providing certification of OS vendors and developers to enhance skills and services. An openEuler technical summit is planned for April to expand and deepen the community’s technical communications. Planning for openEuler 20.09 is also under way.
Current plans call for the openEuler community to release an LTS edition every two years and an innovative edition every six months to provide common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE) management capability. The CVE system lists publicly-known security vulnerabilities.
OpenEuler is also following an upstream-first policy to push all capabilities to the upstream open source community as quickly as possible. An upstream-first policy refers to ensuring that capabilities are integrated back into the master release, providing the assurance that the capabilities will also appear in subsequent releases.
