Networks and Power Requirements for AI Data Centers: A Ten Year Market Forecast and Technology Assessment (January 2025)
This report is an up-to-the-minute study forecasting business opportunities flowing from the new breed of AI data centers. It contains ten-year projections for the number of AI data centers, AI servers and port speeds, AI servers by networking technology/protocol, data storage for AI data centers, power consumption by AI data centers, and cooling technologies in AI data centers.
AI will be the key driver for bandwidth, power and storage in data centers over the next ten years. We are seeing a major re-think in the design, layout and equipment choices for major data centers to meet the special needs of AI. Much of the money for these changes will come from the hyperscale data center owners (AWS, Google, Meta, Microsoft, etc.) as well as data center landlords, but smaller data centers will generate AI-driven demand too and are discussed in the report.
This report embraces a realistic view of AI and discusses the new products for networking, servers and storage that are emerging for the AI era. Also considered in this report is how optical integration and novel processors will be enablers in the AI data centers. In addition, the report takes a look at emerging power and cooling technologies for AI data centers.
Enterprise AI: A Realistic Market Forecast 2025-2035 (Coming in February 2025)
