2014 the driving force of Micro server into server market growth

"Tenkine Server channel January 2 News" The recent Market analysis agency IC Insights Forecast 3721.html ">2014 year's sales of micro-servers will climb to 580 million U.S. dollars from 2013, growth rate of 139%; 2012 to 2017 , micro-server sales are expected to rise at a composite annual rate of nearly 72% per cent, culminating in a total of $1.2 billion trillion.

Through the above forecasts, we see that the micro-server market in 2014 is very optimistic. This is mainly due to emerging technologies such as cloud computing, large data, social, mobile and other drivers. Lightweight workloads, cloud-oriented data centers are more focused on energy efficiency and cost, all of which are a concern for the micro-server market. Both upstream chipmakers, traditional server manufacturers and even large internet companies have shown great interest in micro-servers.

2013, the micro-server chip market arm was supported by many SOC manufacturers, including AMD, Applied Micro, Marvell, and so on, 64-bit arm will be published this year. Intel is also actively transforming the atom chip to support low power and Low-cost micro-servers. HP launched the Intel architecture based moonshot server in 2013 and announced the launch this year of a micro-server product with ARM processors.

At the end of 2013 Calxeda Company announced the collapse of the arm chip market with a very small shock, but AMD in this year launched 64 arm server chip will give the arm market to bring new hope. This year, micro-server chip manufacturers will start to compete for market dominance, micro-server will become the focus of the server market competition.
