From September 19 to 21, 2023, OSSUMMIT EU 2023, the world's top open source summit, was held in Bilbao, Spain. This top open source event hosted by the Linux Foundation successfully brought together open source developers, technical experts, and representatives of universities and research institutions from around the world to discuss and share the innovation and future trends of open source technology.
At this summit, openEuler RISC-V demonstrated its running effect on RISC-V architecture with the help of Milk-V and Sipeed silicon technology hardware, fully demonstrated the strong compatibility and broad application prospects of openEuler on this architecture, and predicted the upcoming release of the first long-term release of RISC-V architecture for business ecosystem. The international open source community at the conference showed great interest and lively exchange of openEuler's multi-architecture support and innovative technologies, and they were amazed by its rapid development and eager to experience it for themselves.
Milk-V's Pioneer motherboard integrates a high-performance 64-core RISC-V processor, the SG2042, clocked at up to 2 GHz. Unlike common RISC-V single-board computers, it uses the standard mATX size, supports up to 128GB of ECC memory, and offers multiple 10Gbps USB 3.2, dual NVMe SSD slots, wireless WiFi 6 expansion, multiple SATA ports, and standard PCIe card expansion. Powerful performance and rich scalability make it stand out in the RISC-V ecosystem, providing developers with a high-performance, versatile hardware platform that is undoubtedly the first choice for RISC-V enthusiasts and professionals.
Sipeed Sispeed launched LicheePi 4A is the first RISC-V development board to match the performance of Raspberry Pi 4, based on TH1520 module, equipped with 4-core 2.0GHz C910 core, 4TOPS NPU and 50GFLOPS GPU, providing developers with powerful performance to meet the needs of various application scenarios. In addition, it also supports Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.0, HDMI 2.0 and other rich peripherals, and integrates WiFi, Bluetooth and MIPI interfaces. These rich hardware features make LicheePi 4A a powerful and flexible development platform that meets the needs of developers in various fields.
Milk-V and Sipeed as two demonstration platforms, showed attendees and the global open source community the smooth operation and high optimization of openEuler on the RISC-V architecture, and also let people see the practical application and potential value of RISC-V. This exhibition not only enhances the influence of openEuler in the global operating system field, but also lays a solid foundation for the future development and application of RISC-V architecture. As more open source projects and enterprises choose RISC-V, it is believed that openEuler will play a more important role in the future technology ecosystem.
