8月9日,华为正式发布全新分布式操作系统:鸿蒙 Harmony OS
在广东东莞举行的华为2019年开发者大会上,华为揭开了新操作系统的神秘面纱,并将它命名为鸿蒙 Harmony OS (英文不是之前大家认为的“Hongmeng OS”)。

受美国制裁的影响,基于安卓操作系统的华为面临巨大压力。
因此,华为自家的鸿蒙操作系统刚一揭开面纱,外媒就将关注焦点放在鸿蒙操作系统是否能成为华为用以取代谷歌安卓系统的杀手锏。

CNN认为,华为自身操作系统的问世,可以在持续升级的中美贸易战中保护华为。
Huawei has finally unveiled its own operating system, a move that could help shield the smartphone maker from the escalating US-China trade war.
华为终于推出了自己的操作系统,此举可能有助于保护这家智能手机制造商免受不断升级的中美贸易战的影响。
The reveal of Harmony OS comes months after the Chinese tech company was placed on a US trade blacklist that barred American firms from selling tech and software to Huawei unless they get a license to do so. That ban has prevented companies like Google (GOOGL) from supplying new Huawei devices with its version of Android OS.
几个月前,这家中国科技公司被列入美国贸易黑名单,除非获得许可,美国公司被禁止向华为销售技术和软件,这一禁令阻止了谷歌向华为的新设备提供其安卓操作系统。

Reuters也指出,华为的新操作系统,可帮助华为减少对美国公司的依赖。
The new OS is part of Huawei’s attempt to develop its own technologies from chips to software to reduce its reliance on U.S. firms amid an intensifying U.S.-China trade war.
新操作系统是华为在不断升级的中美贸易战中,开发自有技术(从芯片到软件)之努力的一部分,以减少其对美国企业的依赖。
Huawei had previously given little information about the software, fueling speculation about how quickly or effectively it could find an alternative to the Android system.
华为此前几乎没有提供过有关这款软件的信息,引发了外界不少猜测,即华为能多快或多有效地找到安卓系统的替代品。

在昨天的发布会上,华为消费者业务CEO余承东表示,鸿蒙完全不同于安卓和iOS系统。华为可以在任何时候将鸿蒙应用于它的智能手机,但目前华为将首先在其智能手表、智能电视、智能扬声器、车载系统等设备上运用该新操作系统。
BBC分析其原因是,目前全球大部分智能手机都是基于安卓操作系统运行的,假如华为将自己与安卓生态系统割裂,可能会削弱华为手机的吸引力。
App makers already have their hands full developing their software for Android and Apple's iOS.
应用程序开发者已经为了安卓和苹果iOS系统开发软件忙得不可开交。
Huawei will have to convince them to develop yet another version for HarmonyOS, with no guarantee that people will buy the devices.
华为将不得不说服他们为鸿蒙开发另一个版本,还不能保证人们会购买这些手机。
This is a problem faced by anyone hoping to challenge the dominance of Android and iOS.
这是任何希望挑战安卓和iOS主导地位的公司都面临的问题。
It plagued BlackBerry 10, which never convinced some of the world's biggest apps such as Instagram to support the platform.
这个问题也曾困扰着黑莓10系统,它从未说服Instagram等一些全球最大的应用程序支持这个平台。
Rival phone-maker Samsung already has its own Tizen operating system which powers many of its smart devices - but even it uses Android to power its flagship phones.
华为的竞争对手三星已经拥有了自己的Tizen操作系统,为其许多智能设备提供动力,但即便是三星也在其旗舰手机上使用安卓系统。

《南华早报》援引专家的看法,认为华为这波操作非常深思熟虑。
“Using Harmony on other devices first, instead of smartphones, is a thoughtful move by Huawei,” said Jia Mo, an analyst from research agency Canalys. “Huawei needs to consider its relationship with Google and it has still not had definitive word from the US that it has been banned from using Android for good.”
“首先在其他设备上使用鸿蒙,而不是智能手机,这是华为深思熟虑的举措,”研究机构Canalys的分析师贾默表示。“华为需要考虑它与谷歌的关系,而且它还没有从美国得到明确的消息,是否它已被永久禁止使用安卓。”
Past attempts by other companies to create an Android alternative have not been successful.
其他公司过去也曾尝试开发安卓替代品,但都没有成功。
“As a brand-new OS, Huawei will need to continuously optimise and improve it,” said Jia. “Carrying it on internet of things (IoT) devices first will help it educate developers and let consumers have the chance to try it out, allowing it to mature and open up more opportunities over time.”
“作为一个全新的操作系统,华为需要不断优化和改进,”贾默说。“首先将其应用于物联网设备将有助于启发开发者,并让消费者有机会试用它,让它成熟起来,并随着时间的推移创造更多的机会。”

华为鸿蒙系统的问世令国人振奋和激动,但它面临的挑战和未卜的前途也值得认真思考和对待。
尽管前路道阻且长,让我们祝福鸿蒙,为它加油!
