Worldwide Server Microprocessor Vendor, Architecture, Channel, Socket, and System Category Market Shares, 2019: 2H19 Compensates for 1H19, Leading to a Flat Year

This IDC study examines the performance of the server microprocessor market through several market views. Unit shipments and revenue by vendors are included as well as unit shipments by processor architecture, channel to customer, socket design capability, and prospective system category. Processors designed for other system categories but consumed by servers are not covered in this study.2019 data by quarter for server microprocessors can be found in IDC's server microprocessor market share documents, including Worldwide Server Microprocessor Vendor, Architecture, Channel, Socket, and System Category Market Shares, 4Q19: New Intel and AMD Processors Drive Market (IDC #US46017720, February 2020)."2019 had a split personality, being weak in the first half, strong in the second half," said Shane Rau, research vice president, Computing Semiconductors. "But, as in 2018, cloud service providers and their direct purchases of microprocessors from vendors were responsible for the shape of the year."
