As emerging technologies continue to shift digital habits, hardware vendors are looking to ensure that digital infrastructure keeps pace. Servers lie at the heart of these efforts, acting as the critical hardware at the core of any computer network. A server is defined as a computer that provides resources, data, programs, or services to other computers, known as clients, over a network. Server manufacturers produce a range of specialized devices to meet specific applications, including web servers, file servers, network servers, game servers and database servers, with the recent rise of artificial intelligence (AI) also prompting the development of specialized AI servers. Almost 14 billion servers were shipped across the globe in 2023, with the market bringing in more than 90 billion U.S. dollars in revenue.
