Unity Operating System or Unified Operating System ( UOS for short ) is a Chinese Linux distribution based on Deepin , developed by Tongxin Software and commissioned by the People's Republic of China to replace foreign operating systems such as Microsoft Windows .

development

Two versions are currently in development, a workstation computer and a server version. A first beta version was released in December 2019 and can be downloaded from the official website. A first stable version was released on January 14, 2020 .

support

The operating system is primarily aimed at the Chinese market and is expected to replace Microsoft Windows in the country by 2022. So the focus has so far been primarily on state-owned hardware such as the semiconductor manufacturer Zhaoxin . The entire KX-6000 series is already supported there by the workstation version and the KH-30000 series for the server version.

Broad support is planned, so platforms such as Loongson , Sunway or ARM should also be supported.
