Fuchsia OS: Google’s Next 'King Of All Operating Systems'

Because the biggest battle in the tech industry now is about making the best operating system, several speculations surfaced that Google is on the move in creating the "next" operating system standard beating all of competition including Google's very own Chrome OS and Android.

Several tech news sites are reporting the said rumor. However, Google did not confirm it in any of its announcements. According to a report by International Business Times, this operating system has a potential to replace Android and Chrome OS. The said operating system is named Fuchsia (pink + purple), because it is based on Magenta kernel.

Google is developing the new operating system with Github. This was very unusual for Google who used to make its previous operating systems (Android and Chrome OS) from Linux kernel. The said new kernel is said to make the new operating system lighter and versatile. A light and versatile operating system is crucial so that the operating system could conveniently scale up and down depending on the device.

This move by Google is linked with its Project Brillo. Google wants to operate all of your devices in the future through this project. Have you ever heard of a smart key, smart wallet, smart door, smart ceiling, smart shoes, smart toaster, smart watch, smart television, etc.? You see, there is a trend right now where in almost all of our everyday appliances is being "smartened up" by connecting them to the internet-it's called the internet of things. Google plans to improve this platform to cater this very futuristic market.

Another tech giant, Samsung, also saw this market and hopefully become a competitor in the future. Samsung already placed a $1.2 Billion investment in their research and development team for the internet of things. It makes sense that whoever wins victoriously in the battle of operating systems, will surely revolutionize the world, just like how Windows and iOS did in the past.
