2016: Formation of Tizen OS Development Ecosystem Center in Russia

Having worked for 18 years at IBM, and then in 2013-2015 at Samsung, Tikhonov also heads the Тайзен.ру association, which became one of the co-founders of the Taizen Center. As of June 2016, it owns 25%, the management company Smart Capital - 75%.

The association, in turn, was created by 11 Russian IT companies in October 2015. The founders included the Research Institute of SOKB, Informzaschita, Elvis-Plus, Infotecs, New Cloud Technologies, the Institute of System Programming (ISP RAS) and others (see more details in the association questionnaire).

It itself operating system Tizen has been developed in partnership Samsung Intel and since 2011. On June 2, 2016, Тайзен.ру signed an agreement with the managing committee of the Tizen Technical Steering Group to create. Russian distribution

Exclusive rights to the Russian distribution, according to Tikhonov, belong to the Russian association, "which has become a full member of the Tizen global project along with Samsung and Intel."

"Тайзен.ру" was created in the form of a non-profit organization in the image of the Linux Foundation. Tikhonov expects that in the future the composition of the founders of the association will expand due to the entry of large Russian system integrators - Lanit, Ai-Teko and others.

In September 2016, members of the association and Taisen Center plan to present a number of prototypes of products in different form factors created on the basis of the Russian distribution, the company's CEO says. In particular, these are mobile and fixed trusted terminals that will allow customers to use software according to the SaaS model.

The advantage of the approach, according to Tikhonov, is the low cost of terminals with a high level of trust, for which full implementation of information security policies through corporate MDM is provided.

Such systems are extremely popular for government and corporate customers with high requirements for privacy and personal data protection - in the field of security, education and medicine. In the future, such devices may be in demand in the b2c segment, he is sure

The Russian project, according to Tikhonov, aims to significantly expand the functionality of Tizen by implementing integrated security and creating additional device profiles - a personal computer, network devices and others.

In addition to Taizen Center, in 2016, the Taizen Security Center and Safe Communications companies were created in order to implement these plans, which were headed by another native of Samsung, Ilya Fedorushkin.

The first, as Tikhonov says, will develop the "security layer" of the Russian distribution Tizen, the second - services similar to those provided by Blackberry.

The priority task of these competence centers is to support members of the consortium, explains the general director of Taisen Center. Subsequently, according to him, companies will attract investor funds for the development of new products. This role will be played by the above-mentioned management company Smart Capital, which also co-founded the Taisen Security Center and Secure Communications.

New Cloud CEO Dmitry Komissarov says Tizen is interesting not only as a trusted OS for Russian government agencies, but also as a new mobile system for emerging markets.

The participation of Korean smartphone manufacturers in the development of Tizen is for us a marker of the commercial attractiveness of this OS, and good data on Samsung sales in India confirm this, "he notes

The Russian version of Tizen, according to Komissarov, has a much deeper integration with domestic security systems, "which is important for our customers" and "therefore we are developing MyOffice mobile customers for Tizen." The application distribution model proposed in Tizen, in his opinion, is better adapted for enterprise applications than in other operating systems.
