Data Centers continue to go up – server sales continue to go down
Datacenter Dynamics blog

Just back from the beach and first thing I notice is more large scale data center project announcements such as that from Ericsson and Digiplex.
Next on the notice board is that x86 server unit sales are dropping everywhere except certain places in APAC where they are flat or show modest growth. Mid range and RISC server systems unit sales and revenues are tanking everywhere while ‘mainframe’ revenues continue to rise.
