European Server Market Shares, 2021: Growth Despite Challenges

This IDC Market Share study provides historical market share data (2017–2021) for the European server market. The historical data illustrates top server vendor shares overall and by product (form factor). IDC has reported vendor shares in vendor revenue and units for the total market and in vendor revenue for the product segment views."The server market performance has generally been robust over the back end of the pandemic, it but has suffered from supply unpredictability and elevated pricing and long lead times as a result," said Andrew Buss, research director, IDC's European Infrastructure Strategies research. "The adoption of cloud computing exploded in Europe during 2020 as the pandemic hit, with a lot of capacity deployed. As the pandemic receded and hybrid work patterns took off, public cloud infrastructure spending dropped, with ODM direct revenue in Europe shrinking over 8% in 2021. The server market saw healthy 4% growth even with supply chain issues, and it is looking to be healthy in 2022 and beyond despite the emergence of economic uncertainty and geopolitical unrest in Eastern Europe," said Luis Fernandes, research manager, IDC's European Infrastructure Strategies.
