A key number: in OpenHarmony, Huawei's contribution has dropped to less than 90%.
As we all know, the Huawei Red Devil system essentially consists of two very different systems.
One is called OpenHarmony, it is an open source system Hongmeng, it is Huawei donated some open source systems to Open Atom**, this system is very clean, Android has nothing to do with it, Android App is not compatible with it. It is incompatible, any individual or organization can use it, submit their own **, and ** will be mapped into OpenHarmony.
Huawei's system is called HarmonyOS, which is a Huawei-specific commercial version developed based on OpenHarmony, which allows Huawei to package AOSP**, etc., so that this system is compatible with Android APP, not open source, and can only be used by Huawei itself, and cannot be used by any other organization or individual.
However, we can also think of it as so-called open source to a certain extent, because it is clear that the original OpenHarmony was completely developed by Huawei, and almost 100% of Huawei's contribution share, that is, Huawei has its own basic open source system, hoping to attract more partners to promote it.
Therefore, such open source systems have very important success indicators: the number of providers and the percentage of provider contributions**.
For example, if an open source system is largely ignored, with only one vendor contributing and a 100% contribution rate, that means no one is interested in the system.
If an open source system has a large number of companies contributing collectively**, it is a sign that the system is successful and that there are many companies involved.
For example, Android AOSP: Google, Huawei, Samsung, Xiaomi, OPPO, Vivo, Lenovo, and Qualcomm all offer **. All of these vendors contribute a lot and are deeply involved in the process. About 50% of this is contributed by Google itself, and the remaining 50% is contributed by merchants around the world.
Android AOSP should be one of the most successful open-source systems in the world today.
If Huawei's contribution to ** is very high, close to 100%, then it cannot be said to be successful just by promoting Huawei's system, but if Huawei's contribution to ** is very low and the participation of other manufacturers is high, the system is successful.
So, what is Huawei's current share of OpenHarmony**? According to a report some time ago, OpenHarmony will add 16.2 million new lines in 2023, and Huawei's contribution rate will reach 8875%, down from last year. Huawei's contribution rate reached 8875%, down from last year. The contribution rate from other companies is 1125%, higher than last year.
This shows that OpenHarmony is attracting more and more companies to participate, and OpenHarmony is no longer Huawei's own.
So, this is very good news. I hope that over time, Huawei's contribution will gradually decrease, even below 50%. If that's the case, then it's proof that an open and harmonious organization is really successful, isn't it?
