Huawei on the completion of the formation of infrastructure for the development of a new distribution Linux which will develop communities. The first release of openEuler 1.0 has already been published on the project website, (3.2 GB) of which is currently only available for systems based on the Aarch64 (ARM64) architecture. The repository contains about 1000 packages compiled for ARM64 and x86_64 architectures. Source texts associated with the distribution posted in the service . Package sources are also via Gitee.
openEuler is based on the developments of a commercial distribution , which is a fork of the package base CentOS and is primarily optimized for use on servers with ARM64 processors. The security methods used in the EulerOS distribution are certified by the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China and are also recognized as compliant with the requirements of CC EAL4+ (Germany), NIST CAVP (USA), and CC EAL2+ (USA). EulerOS one of the five operating systems (EulerOS, macOS, Solaris, HP-UX and IBM AIX) and the only distribution Linux, certified by the Opengroup committee as compliant with the UNIX 03 standard.
At first glance, the differences between openEuler and CentOS are quite significant and are not limited to rebranding. For example, openEuler comes with core Linux 4.19, systemd 243, bash 5.0 and
A desktop based on GNOME 3.30. Many ARM64-specific optimizations have been introduced, some of which have already been migrated to the main kernel codebases. Linux, GCC, OpenJDK and Docker. while only in Chinese.
Among the features of the distribution kit, the system of automatic optimization of settings stands out , which uses machine learning methods to tune system operating parameters. It also offers its own simplified toolkit for managing isolated containers , runtime (Lightweight Container Runtime, compatible with OCI, but unlike runc it is written in C and uses gRPC) and a network configurator .
