Data Center Processor Industry Overview
The data center processor market is semi-consolidated with significant players like Intel Corporation, NVIDIA Corporation, Advanced Micro Devices Inc., Xilinx Inc., and Arm Holdings PLC. The players in the studied market are striving to constantly innovate advanced products to cater to the evolving needs of consumers.
February 2024: Nvidia announced that it ramped up GPU production to fuel the AI data center revolution. The company launched optimizations for Google’s newly released Gemma family of lightweight models. The two companies developed architecture to accelerate the model’s performance running in Nvidia data centers, in the cloud, and on GPU-enhanced PCs. The initial stock of Nvidia’s H200 processors is set to ship in the second half of 2024.
December 2023: Intel launched its 5th-generation Xeon Scalable processors at the AI Everywhere event in New York. Intel released the fourth generation of its Intel Xeon processors in January 2023, but to keep pace with its competitors, it has unveiled the fifth generation of the chips, also known by its code name Emerald Rapids. These new processors offer a 21% average compute performance gain and 16% better memory speeds than the previous generation of Xeon processors, Sapphire Rapids, enabling 36% higher average performance per watt across a diverse range of customer workloads - Intel claims. This would facilitate users' undertaking processor-intensive tasks while utilizing less overall power, with Intel describing them as their most sustainable data center processors.
