openEuler Launches SuperPoD OS as AMD Joins Community
The OpenAtom openEuler community has concluded its Operating System Conference & openEuler Summit 2025 in Beijing, announcing the first operating system release designed for SuperPoD computing environments.
The community has expanded to include over 2,100 member organisations and more than 23,000 contributors since its open source launch in 2019. The installed base of openEuler-based operating systems is expected to exceed 16 million deployments by the end of 2025, with adoption across internet, telecommunication, finance, utilities and energy sectors in China.
Cheng Xiaoming, Chairman of OpenAtom Foundation, says that âopen source thrives on collaboration and that ecosystems grow through shared effortâ, noting that progress for openEuler depends on coordination among hardware partners, software vendors and developers.
SuperPoD support arrives with openEuler 24.03 LTS SP3
Dr Xiong Wei, Chairperson of the OpenAtom openEuler Committee, announced openEuler 24.03 LTS SP3 at the summit as the first release version supporting SuperPoDs.
The operating system provides three capabilities for SuperPoD environments: global resource abstraction with unified memory addressing and device pooling, heterogeneous resource convergence with high-bandwidth and low-latency interconnects and a global resource view with compatible and native APIs designed to support SuperPoD AI workloads.
Xiong says: âopenEuler is committed to embracing SuperPoD computing and AI, accelerating globalisation and offering the world a new OS choiceâ. The community plans to officially launch its next-generation operating system for SuperPoDs by the end of 2025.
Intelligence BooM 2511 brings efficiency gains for AI workloads
The community introduced Intelligence BooM 2511, codenamed âQiaoyumianâ, as the latest version of its open source AI solution for data centre workloads, following the July 2025 version 2507 âHuimianâ.
Intelligence BooM 2511 supports fine-tuning of over 50 model types and delivers efficiency gains of 10% to 30% in heterogeneous inference. The solution includes rapid adaptation capabilities for AI agent applications and has been adopted commercially by partners including Powerleader and HUAKUN.
In industrial automation, openEuler has advanced embedded capabilities through MIxed-CriticAlity system framework deployment, UniProton real-time kernel and openEuler Embedded virtualisation technology. These technologies achieve microsecond-level responsiveness and have been deployed by China Southern Power Grid and Phoenix Contact to support IT-OT convergence.
Linaro and Arm release confidential computing solution
openEuler released a confidential computing solution based on Arm CCA in collaboration with Arm, Linaro, Baidu AI Cloud, KylinSoft, Kylinsec, UnionTech, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and the Global Computing Consortium. The solution represents the first Arm CCA-based confidential computing implementation on an open source operating system.
The solution implements support for CCA confidential virtual machines with performance overhead under 5% through trusted I/O channels. The technology integrates confidential computing workloads while maintaining the openEuler software ecosystem.
Grant Likely, CTO of Linaro, highlighted the company's contribution to the Arm ecosystem and noted that Linaro has played a role in enabling Arm CCA on openEuler since joining the community in 2021.
AMD and major partners join openEuler ecosystem
AMD, Inspur Cloud and Digital China joined openEuler as members this year, meaning that Intel, Arm and AMD are now all part of the community.
Maria Tang, CVP of AMD, says the company maintains open partnership with the Chinese market and its continued collaboration with openEuler in AI, cloud and confidential computing, noting that AMD has adapted its server processor products to openEuler across the platform.
Andrew Wafaa, Arm Senior Director Software Communities & Fellow and PyTorch Board, says Arm is committed to ensuring long-term compatibility and joint innovation with openEuler.
The community introduced its first group of globalisation pioneer partners at the summit, including LINX SOFTWARE, Chinasoft International, Wind River, UnionTech, xFusion, Hoperun, KylinSoft and Kylinsec. These partners will work to accelerate international adoption of openEuler.
openEuler has established technical collaborations with the Zephyr Project and the LF AI & Data Foundation. The community has formed partnerships with 15 global open source organisations across AI, cloud, big data, cluster computing and embedded systems.
