An IT technician is selecting an operating system for a fleet of inexpensive laptops and detachable tablets that will run mainly cloud-based apps. Management specifically wants a Google-developed, proprietary OS rather than the open-source mobile OS used on most smartphones. Which OS meets these requirements?
iOS
Android
Windows
Chrome OS
Chrome OS is a cloud-centric operating system that Google distributes only on approved hardware, and its code base includes closed-source, proprietary components. It ships pre-installed on Chromebooks (laptops) and some tablets such as the Pixel Slate, matching the scenario. Android is based on the Android Open Source Project, so although many devices ship with proprietary Google services, the core OS remains open source. iOS belongs to Apple, and Windows is produced by Microsoft, so neither satisfies the requirement for a Google-developed proprietary OS in this context.
