Редакция ЦОД:Главное
IndexBox has published a forecast for the global white-box server market, projecting an 8.2% compound annual growth rate for 2026–2035 under its base case. The forecast places the market index at 220 by 2035, with 2025 set at 100.
- IndexBox’s base case projects 8.2% annual growth in the global white-box server market during 2026–2035.
- The market index is forecast to reach 220 by 2035, against a 2025 baseline of 100.
- Cloud, hyperscale, AI and machine-learning deployments are identified as demand drivers.
- Supply-chain constraints, reliability requirements and branded-server competition remain material limits.
- The outlook is a market forecast, not a measure of actual server shipments or data-center capacity additions.
IndexBox’s global white-box server market outlook covers historical data for 2012–2025 and a forecast period through 2035. Its base scenario projects an 8.2% CAGR between 2026 and 2035, taking the market index to 220 by 2035 from a 2025 baseline of 100.
The report identifies the expansion of cloud and hyperscale data centers, alongside the wider deployment of AI and machine-learning workloads, as demand drivers. For data-center operators and infrastructure buyers, white-box platforms offer standardized, unbranded server hardware supplied without software, an operating system or manufacturer support.
The outlook supports a scenario of sustained procurement growth in server infrastructure for cloud, hyperscale and AI workloads. If that scenario materializes, white-box platforms could strengthen price competition with branded systems and increase demand for adaptable component supply chains.
However, the report also identifies supply-chain bottlenecks, high requirements for technical capability and reliability, and competition from branded servers as constraints. The forecast should not be read as evidence of realized server shipments, capital investment or commissioned data-center capacity. IndexBox’s review covers Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.
White-box servers sit within the compute-equipment supply chain for cloud and hyperscale data centers. If the base case is realized, it could point to broader demand for standardized, configurable server platforms, while increasing price competition and the need for flexible component supply chains.
