Singularity Architecture

Microsoft is by no means all about the Windows operating system. In fact, Windows Vista Service Pack 1, Windows XP Service Pack 3, as well as the next iteration of the Windows platform, Windows 7, are old news by now. There is a new star emerging from Redmond, and it is a non-Windows operating system: Singularity. At this point in time, Microsoft has made available the Singularity Research Development Kit (RDK) version 1.1for download via CodePlex. Still, the new operating system is not a Microsoft open source project, but one aimed at academic non-commercial use.

Singularity version 1.1 went live on CodePlex at the beginning of March 2008, and since then it has made its way to the top of the most popular projects on Microsoft’s open source project hosting website. In fact, Singularity is featured in the number 1 spot under the CodePlex’s Projects With Most Downloads section. “While looking around CodePlex for something else, I was interested to see that Singularity was the top downloaded project,” said Lynn Langit, a Developer Evangelist for the MSDN (Microsoft Developer Network) team.
