"The light boat has crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains. At the Huawei Developer Conference 2023, Yu Chengdong, Executive Director of Huawei and CEO of Device BG, set the tone for the HarmonyOS ecosystem.
After four years of frantic running, the number of HarmonyOS devices has exceeded 700 million, the number of HarmonyOS developers has exceeded 2.2 million, and the API calls have reached 59 billion times a day. So far, there are more than 150 partners in the open-source HarmonyOS community, and more than 350 software and hardware products.
At present, Huawei Hongmeng is facing the biggest challenge: ecological construction. Ecology is the key to the development of the domestic operating system, whether there are a large number of software developers and hardware manufacturers to cooperate with it, whether it can bring users a richer and better adaptation experience, determines the success or failure of the operating system, as the so-called "ecological success, then Hongmeng success".
Therefore, since last year, the construction of the HarmonyOS ecosystem has been accelerating, which is not #一季度鸿蒙原生应用数量激增20倍#, Huawei officially announced that more than 4,000 applications have joined the HarmonyOS ecosystem. This means that the HarmonyOS ecosystem has been further expanded, including payment, e-commerce, short video, entertainment, news, travel and other vertical areas. Next, I believe that there will be more provincial and municipal enterprises and APPs to embrace Hongmeng together, so as to welcome a new era, and the ecological map of Hongmeng will basically take shape.
In the past five months, from the head application manufacturers to the governments across the country, a wave of Hongmeng has been set off, forming a trend of "thousands of sails competing". Among them, super applications Alipay, Taobao, JD.com, Meituan, AutoNavi, etc. are accelerating the development of Hongmeng native applications, CCTV has taken the lead in completing the full version development, B station, Xiaohongshu, iQiyi, Himalaya, WPS Office, China Merchants Bank, Postal Savings Bank and other head applications have completed the development of beta versions, and are continuing to polish the products. Partners from different fields will take the lead and will attract more partners to join the HarmonyOS ecosystem.
At the same time, Alibaba Cloud audio and video terminal SDK, AutoNavi Map SDK, and Weibo login and sharing SDK also implement adaptation to HarmonyOS NEXT, which will further reduce the development workload of partners and drive more partners to accelerate the development process of HarmonyOS native applications.
The exponential growth of HarmonyOS native applications is a true portrayal of thousands of industries quickly embracing HarmonyOS and moving towards the future of the Internet of Everything in all scenarios, and it also indicates that the development of the domestic application ecology is ushering in a "golden age".
At present, the leading enterprises in the automobile, game, Internet, finance and other industries have joined the HarmonyOS ecosystem, and there are more than 4,000 applications in the ecosystem, achieving full coverage of the vertical domain, showing the appeal and cohesion of the unique file in China!
At present, the developer preview of HarmonyOS NEXT is open for developers to apply, and the commercial version for consumers will be released in the fourth quarter of this year.
