REDWOOD CITY, Calif.,
Jan. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
According to a recently published report by Dell'Oro Group, the
trusted source for information about the networking, IT and
telecommunications industries, server unit shipments are expected
to continue to grow, albeit at a low single digit CAGR for the
2014-2019 period.
"The increase in the number of connected devices as well as the
number of workloads processed by data centers will continue to
drive demand for physical servers, although virtualization trends
will dampen growth rates," said Sameh Boujelbene, Director at
Dell'Oro Group. "Although server shipments will continue to
grow, the deployment location for these servers is definitely
changing. Cloud economics—including server prices, resiliency,
scalability, and product lifespan—along with enhancements in cloud
security are promoting migration of workloads across servers, and
are accelerating Cloud adoption," stated Boujelbene.
The Report indicates that high-density servers, based on either
Intel's X86 or ARM processors will drive the majority of growth in
unit shipments during the forecast period. The analysis also
discusses the various Ethernet network connectivity options for
each server form factor for Cloud vs. Enterprise/Premises
deployments, and reveals that a minimum of eight port speeds are
expected to co-exist for server access over the next five
years.
