BEIJING, November 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The OpenAtom openEuler Community (“openEuler”) successfully concluded the openEuler 2025 Operating Systems Conference and Summit in Beijing on November 14-15. Themed “Intelligence Unbounded, Open Source Beyond,” the two-day event brought together global industry leaders, open source contributors and ecosystem partners to advance operating system innovation and accelerate the development of an open global software infrastructure.
Since its open source launch in 2019, openEuler has grown rapidly, now with more than 2,100 member organizations and more than 23,000 global contributors. The installed base of openEuler-based operating systems is expected to exceed 16 million deployments by the end of 2025, making it one of the preferred choices for digital transformation in China’s internet, telecommunications, finance, utilities and energy sectors.
Looking ahead, the community is aiming for the next stage of growth and innovation. By the end of 2025, openEuler will officially launch its next-generation operating system designed for SuperPoDs, laying the foundation for the AI era and strengthening global collaboration.
OpenAtom Foundation President Cheng Xiaoming emphasized in his keynote speech that open source thrives through collaboration and ecosystems thrive through shared efforts. He emphasized that every openEuler advancement relies on close coordination between hardware partners, software vendors and global developers.
First version of the openEuler operating system for SuperPoDs
As AI workloads increase at unprecedented speed, conventional server clusters are struggling to keep pace. The industry is moving toward SuperPoDs, very large-scale clusters that integrate multiple physical machines into a unified computing unit capable of AI training and inference, to address these challenges.
At the summit, Dr. Xiong Wei, Chairman of the OpenAtom openEuler Committee, announced openEuler 24.03 LTS SP3, the first release to support SuperPoDs.
He described the three defining capabilities required for such an operating system:
- Global resource abstraction with unified memory addressing and device grouping
- Convergence of heterogeneous resources with high-bandwidth, low-latency interconnections
- A holistic view of resources with compatible and native APIs to unlock performance for SuperPoD AI workloads
He noted that openEuler is committed to adopting SuperPoD computing and AI, accelerating globalization and providing the world with a new operating system choice.
Advancing AI capabilities to accelerate industry digitalization
Full-Stack AI Solution: Intelligence BooM 2511 “Qiaoyumian”
For data center AI workloads, openEuler introduced the latest version of the open-source full-stack Intelligence AI solution BooM: 2511 “Qiaoyumian”, following version 2507 “Huimian” from July 2025 (both version names were inspired by traditional Chinese noodle dishes).
The new version supports:
- Development of more than 50 types of models
- 10-30% efficiency gains in heterogeneous inference
- Rapid adaptation for AI agent applications
The solution is already adopted commercially by partners including Powerleader and HUAKUN.
Building next-generation industrial automation
In industrial automation, openEuler continues to advance embedded capabilities, including the deployment of the MIxed-CriticAlity (MICA) system framework, the UniProton real-time core, and openEuler Embedded virtualization technology.
Together, these technologies achieve microsecond responsiveness and have been deployed at companies such as China Southern Power Grid and Phoenix Contact, accelerating IT-OT convergence.
openEuler Arm CCA confidential computing solution
Security remains a top priority as AI adoption accelerates.
openEuler, together with Arm, Linaro, Baidu AI Cloud, KylinSoft, Kylinsec, UnionTech, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and the Global Computing Consortium (GCC), jointly launched the world’s first confidential computing solution based on Arm CCA on an open source operating system.
This solution:
- Implements full support for CCA confidential virtual machines
- Makes openEuler the first open source operating system with native support for CCA virtual machines
- Reduces performance overhead to less than 5% with reliable I/O channels
- Preserves openEuler’s broad software ecosystem while seamlessly integrating confidential IT workloads
Linaro CTO Grant Likely highlighted Linaro’s long-term contribution to the Arm ecosystem and noted that since joining the openEuler community in 2021, the company has played a central role in enabling Arm CCA on openEuler.
Strengthening the global ecosystem and expanding international collaboration
This year, AMD, Inspur Cloud and Digital China joined openEuler as new members. With this, all three major chip companies (Intel, Arm and AMD) are now part of the community, marking a significant milestone.
Maria Tang, CVP of AMD, highlighted AMD’s open partnership with the Chinese market and its continued collaboration with openEuler in the areas of AI, cloud and confidential computing. She also highlighted that AMD has fully adapted its server processor products to openEuler, ensuring seamless integration across the entire platform.
Andrew Wafaa, Arm’s Senior Director of Software Communities and PyTorch Board Member, highlighted Arm’s commitment to long-term compatibility and joint innovation with openEuler.
At the summit, the community introduced its first group of globalization pioneer partners, including LINX SOFTWARE, Chinasoft International, Wind River, UnionTech, xFusion, Hoperun, KylinSoft, and Kylinsec. These partners will jointly accelerate the international adoption of openEuler.
openEuler is also deepening its cooperation with global open source foundations. Recently, the community established new technical collaborations with the Zephyr Project and the LF AI & Data Foundation. To date, openEuler has formed partnerships with 15 global open source organizations in the areas of AI, cloud, big data, cluster computing and embedded.
