Worldwide server shipments increase 12.2 %
Added On:8/22/2008

Worldwide server shipments for the second quarter of 2008 increased 12.2 percent over the last year, while worldwide server revenue for the same period climbed 5.7 percent according to Gartner, Inc. Worldwide server revenue totalled $13.8 billion for the second quarter, as worldwide servers shipments reached 2.3 million units.

Inspite of the US slowdown, the most significant driver in the quarter continued to be an upswing in x86 server replacements that started in the first quarter and specifically the trends in the emerging markets led to the growth as per the reports. IBM maintained the revenue lead in the worldwide server market for the quarter.

It had solid increases in both its System p and System z brands which offset some revenue declines in its other brands. Dell and HP had revenue increases for the period. Fujitsu/Fujitsu Siemens and Sun both experienced revenue declines.   In server shipments, Hewlett-Packard grew 8.7 percent compared to the second quarter of 2007, and retained its worldwide server shipment lead.


HP’s growth came from its ProLiant, HP Integrity and HP NonStop brands. HP pushed its blade server shipment share upward 3.6 percent to reach a total of 45.2 percent for the quarter.Dell posted a 24.2 percent growth for the quarter.
All the remaining global vendors, Fujitsu/Fujitsu Siemens, IBM and Sun all had shipment increases in the single digits for the period.
