The launch of openKylin 1.0 will help bolster the iteration and upgrade of the domestic operating system; guarantee the security in key fields such as government affairs, finance, communications, energy and transportation; and provide reliable basic software services for the country's IT industrial chain.
Currently, China's software operating system industry is dominated by foreign labels, such as Microsoft Windows, Google Android and Apple Mac OS. The openKylin system can be applied in some hardware devices, including computers and mobile phones. Last year, CEC unveiled China's first desktop operating system developers' platform openKylin.
