Worldwide Server Operating System Environments Market Shares, 2023: The Market Slows Temporarily


This IDC study provides market share data for the server OS market for new licenses, subscriptions, and deployments for each major platform in CY23. It also provides revenue market share data for select commercial server OS suppliers."Surely, the server operating system environments market in 2023 was dynamic," said Greg Macatee, research manager, Infrastructure Software Platforms Group at IDC. "Net-new shipments into the installed base took a turn for the worse compared with what we have seen over the past few years while revenue continued to grow. Looking ahead, we anticipate prolonged investment into server OS platforms as buyers ready themselves to undertake AI initiatives and deploy other performance-rich workloads."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
