Research on IE being abandoned the open source monopoly monopoly is the good

Microsoft IE will soon come to an end. Series of browser technology improving, a series of advertising campaigns, all failed to save the fate of IE has more than 20 years of history. Run Caton, a page displaying Bug a lot, from time to time the process crashes, IE the negative image it has become Microsoft bear the yoke. Overwhelmed Microsoft finally decided to abandon the browser brands with many young people grow up.

For IE's own problems, there have been many discussions in the industry. Indeed, IE need to assume too much. For compatibility, Microsoft need to get IE to support Internet development many of the early Web technology. The reason is simple: many of the intranet there is still based on outdated technology development services, and convince these companies to invest to upgrade these services to support the latest Web technologies, it is very difficult. In order to ensure backward compatibility, IE can only become more complex, of course, are more prone to problems.

Technology is only one of the factors, causing IE and ultimately unable to keep up with Web technology development trends, is due more to Microsoft's strategy.

IE was born in the early development of the Internet. At the time, high development costs of Web browser, software companies need to develop the browser core and script engine, also designed a variety of man-machine interactive functions and interface. Such work is not big companies such as Microsoft and Netscape to complete. Tearing force war with Netscape in the 90 's, IE is the ultimate winner. This means that IE uses a range of Microsoft's proprietary technology will receive modest living soil, while Microsoft can slowly improve browser technology with ease, enjoying a monopoly (or, more diplomatic way, "market dominance") brings dividends.

As with any other monopolies, IE the speed of innovation is very slow. After all, in "the innovator's dilemma", without any company will take the initiative to change their leader. Around 2005, inherited from Netscape Firefox start competing with Microsoft's launch of a new round. Microsoft to face that competition continues to ease, firmly grasp the mainstream users, Firefox geeks and technologists will be compressed in this market. However, an important factor in the success of Firefox: open source, IE half gradually lost its competitive advantage.

Then the other half is what? Simply put, this is the arrival of other giants. + Open source industry giants, this brings us to another kind of "market dominance."

Google's Chrome browser was launched in 2008. Right from the beginning, Chrome browser is based on the open source WebKit engine. Subsequently, the Google browser optimization also includes WebKit engine optimized. Google's strong investments, better not just the Chrome browser also includes WebKit.

With the browser kernel, open source JavaScript engine, as well as other browser module development, contemporary trends in browser development presents a modular. This means that, subject to open source license, any developer can use the modules. Developers even design their own interface and logo, and come up with some ingenious little feature, you can launch a new browser. Ted Baker iPhone cases Ted Baker iPhone cases

Given the circumstances, browser development time cycles from the 90 's on a year basis dropped to current month by month, or by the day. Function and performances and for the browser, such as Web page rendering and JavaScript scripts run faster, developers will no doubt tend to choose the best products on the market. In this case, WebKit of course choices.

Large and small software companies and Internet companies have the incentive to develop own-brand browser. Internet browser is a normal user entry, can be derived from a variety of business models, and take their profit. For example, the browser's default login page provides Internet navigation service, and the default search engine is to promote independent development of search engine products, can also import flow through to major search engines to generate income. In fact, the browser is an important part of the Internet ecosystem.

Market, while Google lost no time in investing in WebKit just to meet the market demand. Open source WebKit gathered a group of browser developers. For example, the familiar 360, search dogs roam and integrate WebKit browsers such as the kernel. Abroad, the Opera in 2013 and give up their own kernel, onto the WebKit camp. By controlling the browser kernel, Google actually has led the development of modern browser technology.

The recent United States Science and technology circle argument is that Google is becoming the new Microsoft. But equally "dominant market position", Google's approach to field more than the Microsoft. Browser kernel development cost time, effort and money is huge, so even if you have a source, independent developers and small companies are still difficult to make a breakthrough to this product. This open source product to dominate the market, and fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the market to its own use, far more clever than proprietary technologies to dominate the market.

There is no doubt that Google already familiar with this, and the Android mobile operating system market is another excellent example. Microsoft is developing a new browser Project Spartan. In the case of lack of ecosystem coordination, this browser can achieve what kind of results are still questionable. Perhaps the future destiny of this browser may be similar to the best game no one played the Windows Phone, Android stumble under the weight.
