It was an announcement that caught me off guard has given me hope that finally "Big Boys" are ready to listen and accommodate developers in their development of an operating system. The news was what I can call best ever since Android launch.The tow Linux software groups which have joined forces to develop a new operating system for mobile phones and other devices like Tablets . Intel, which also has its own MeeGo Linux system, and Samsung Electronics,one of the key contributors to LiMo, will head the technical steering committee developing Tizen.
Collaboration include Intel and Samsung Electronics as well.As a mobile developer,I do not buy into analysts argument that Tizen platform is likely to struggle to attract wider developer and manufacturer support to compete with the dozen or so other mobile operating systems in a market dominated by Apple and Google's Linux-based Android.When I look at industry major players like Nokia and Hewlett-Packard ditching their mobile platforms earlier this year,it means the competition is getting tighter and tighter and only the best OS will survive the cut throat battle in mobile industry.
My reason for supporting Tizen Platform is because it's the best hope for developers who want to switch our allegiances to rival platforms to restrict Google's huge influence over the mobile market that has made the company arrogant and ignorant to mobile developers.Even most operators who get worried by Android's increasing smart phone dominance will welcome a third force.LiMo Foundation and the Linux Foundation revealed that the new Tizen platform is an open-source, standards-based software platform that supports multiple devices including smartphones, Tablets, smart TVs, netbooks and in-vehicle 'infotainment' systems.The initial release is planned for the first quarter of 2012, enabling the first devices using Tizen to come to market in mid-2012.
In my opinion,Tizen aims to unify a number of marginalized Linux based platforms.There is also a willingness to create an independent alternative to Android but history tells us that willingness doesn't necessarily equate to success.In case of Samsung,it might be further tempted to try a new system as Google's acquisition of Motorola Mobility raised uncertainty over the future of Android.Recently,a Samsung insider told me via mail that thy have been a core Linux partner and this is in line with their strategy of supporting many platforms.Linux is the most popular type of free, or open-source, computer operating system which allows the public to use, revise and share. Linux suppliers earn money selling improvements and technical services.
