Chinese cloud giant releases homegrown operating system for Chinese server CPUs — TencentOS Server V3 supports Huawei Kunpeng, Sugon Hygon, and Phytium FeiTeng chips

Tencent.

As shipments of high-performance processors based on x86 and Arm architectures to China face challenges, the country is gradually adopting locally designed data center platforms. As a result, Chinese companies also must adopt locally developed operating systems. Tencent Cloud recently unveiled TencentOS Server V3, which supports Huawei's Kunpeng, Sugon's Hygon, and Phytium's FeiTeng CPUs, reports DigiTimes.

The TencentOS Server V3 is designed primarily for large-scale server clusters powered by China's three main server CPU lines: Arm-based Huawei's Kunpeng, x86-based Sugon's Hygon, and Arm-based Phytium's FeiTeng CPUs. The operating system optimizes CPU usage, power consumption, and memory usage. To better optimize its operating system and data centers for domestic processors, Tencent partnered with Huawei and Sugon to develop high-performance platforms for domestic databases.
