Forecast: Public Cloud Processors, Accelerators, and Memory
Share This Post
This Excel spreadsheet contains forecasts for the installed base, value, and shipments of public cloud processors, accelerators, and memory for the next five years. Cloud providers will face a growing need for processors to keep up with the increasing demand for computational power. Cloud providers need to purchase about 1 million processors per quarter in the coming year, and this number is expected to rise to 1.8 million each quarter by 2028. Total utilized CPU and GPUs in Cloud will be growing annually by 47%, which reflects on the demand for cloud-run applications, accelerated by data-intensive processes and generative AI. An additional 244,000 accelerators will be needed each quarter to meet demand for cloud-based AI.
