Gartner zum weltweiten Server-Markt 2007

Freitag, 22. Februar 2008 um 15:44

Nach Angaben des IT-Marktforschungs- und Beratungsunternehmens Gartner stiegen die weltweiten Server Verkäufe in 2007 gegenüber dem Vorjahr um 7,4 Prozent an. Der Umsatz des Server Marktes verzeichnete ein Wachstum von 3,8 Prozent gegenüber dem Jahr 2006.

„Im vierten Quartal 2007 stiegen die Server-Verkäufe um fast 11 Prozent und das obwohl in der Vergangenheit oft ein Rückgang aufgrund von Schwankungen in einigen Wirtschaftssegmenten und -regionen bemängelt wurde“, erklärt Gartner Analyst Jeffrey Hewitt. Im Hinblick auf den Umsatz führt IBM weiterhin den weltweiten Server Markt vor HP und Dell an.

Gartner Says Worldwide Server Shipments Experienced 7 Per Cent Growth, While Industry Revenue Posted a 4 Per Cent Increase in 2007

STAMFORD, Conn., February 21, 2007 — Worldwide server shipments in 2007 increased 7.4 per cent from 2006, while worldwide server revenue grew 3.8 per cent in 2007, according to Gartner, Inc.

“The server market did exhibit growth for the fourth quarter and for the year as a whole,” said Jeffrey Hewitt, research vice president at Gartner. “In fact, the fourth quarter climbed almost 11 per cent in shipments and just under 3 per cent in revenues in spite of the fact that there have been concerns about a slowdown due to downturns in certain economic sectors of particular geographies.”

“RISC-Itanium Unix servers fell on a global basis for 2007 at 13.8 per cent in shipments but grew 1.7 per cent in revenue for the year,” Mr Hewitt said. “Comparatively, mainframes showed an 11.8 per cent revenue decline which can be attributed to a slow period in the replacement cycle timing for this server class.”

IBM continued to lead the worldwide server market based on revenue (see Table 1). The company ended the year with an overall slight increase in revenue (0.8 per cent for 2007). Gartner analysts attribute the company’s performance to a 10.2 per cent growth in System x and a 9.1 per cent growth in System p while System z and System i revenue both dropped 9.6 per cent for the year.

Of the top five global vendors, Dell, Hewlett Packard (HP), IBM and Sun all had revenue increases for the year, while Fujitsu/Fujitsu Siemens was the only one to have a slight decline.

In server shipments, Hewlett-Packard remained the worldwide leader for 2007 (see Table 2). Its shipment growth was a solid 16.6 per cent. The ProLiant brand grew 17.2 per cent in shipments for the year while HP Integrity climbed 56.8 per cent and HP NonStop went up 13.8 per cent. All other HP brands declined for the period, which when combined with the gains of the other brands, produced the overall final result.

Of the top ten vendors in server shipments worldwide, only three did not have shipment increases for the year: IBM, NEC and Sun.
