Discover HarmonyOS, a powerful distributed operating system featuring AI and edge computing. Ideal for smartphones, wearables, TVs, and IoT devices. Enjoy seamless resource sharing across your connected ecosystem.
HarmonyOS, developed by Huawei, is a versatile distributed operating system designed for a wide range of smart devices including smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, smartwatches, PCs, and IoT devices. Its core architecture features a microkernel design with dual frameworks that intelligently select the optimal kernel based on device resources. The HarmonyOS architecture comprises four layers: the kernel layer, responsible for managing processes, memory, and peripherals; the system service layer, providing essential services; the framework layer, offering APIs for developers; and the application layer, hosting user applications. This flexible design allows HarmonyOS to efficiently manage diverse devices while maintaining compatibility through its microkernel and support for Linux ABI, enabling porting of existing Linux applications, particularly after the removal of the multi-kernel framework in HarmonyOS 5 (HarmonyOS Next).
