삼성 'Bada' 과연 살아 남을 수 있을까?

드디어 삼성 바다 SDK가 개발자들에게 정식으로 공개가 되었다고 한다.
하지만 과연 얼마나 많은 3rd Party 개발자들이 관심을 가질까?

이미 스마트폰 시장의 대부분은 아이폰이 차지하고 있고
그 나머지를 안드로이드가 점유하고 있는 가운데 아직까지 단말이 출시도 되지 않았고
향후 얼마만큼의 시장이 생길지도 불확실한 가운데...

무엇보다 애플이나 구글에 비해서 아무래도 떨어질 SDK 지원도 문제일테고...

과연 삼성이 바다를 살리기 위해서 어떤 카드를 가지고 있을지...
없다면 잠시 나타났다 사라지는 플랫폼이 될지도...

Samsung releases Bada SDK to developers – will anyone care?

by Greg Kumparak on May 7, 2010

And so it begins: Samsung has just released the first build of the SDK for Bada, their built-in-house Smartphone platform. The SDK comes complete with it’s own user interface creation tool, debugger, simulator, and API set. Alas, it’s currently Windows-only.

Developers are one of the most key ingredients to whether or not a platform succeeds. Developers flocked to the iPhone, and seem to finally be warming up to Android. Just about every other platform, however, seems to be having a hard time pulling developers into their camp. Will devs embrace Bada?

Probably not – at least not for the time being. While Samsung has plans to launch a number of Bada phones around the world, they’ve yet to formally announce plans for any outside of the Wave — and they haven’t even confirmed the Wave is coming to the US.

Apple brought a massive market all using one device, with an SDK born out of a foundation (Cocoa) that has been in the works for decades. Google’s Android offers up a constantly expanding armory of handsets that carriers are willing to dump massive ad budgets into as their answer to the iPhone. If Samsung wants to garner the interest of developers, they’re going to have to figure out (and proudly proclaim) what they bring to the table.
