Gartner
gives IBM first place in worldwide server revenue for the ninth consecutive
quarter, with dramatic growth in Unix and blade server revenue. Apparently IBM
increased its share in Unix revenue 5.5 points year-over-year to 33% of total
revenues, while Sun lost share.
IBM also
added more than seven points of share in the blade market, claiming more than
42% of the revenue in Q2, up 78%. IBM brought in 30% of worldwide server
revenues, up 4.6%. IBM claims to be number one in overall Linux-based server
revenue worldwide.
Meanwhile, armed
with the IDC numbers, HP was saying that its server revenue outpaced worldwide
market growth in Q2. It is first in total units shipped, first in x86 servers,
both units and revenue, growing faster than the market year-over-year in
revenue with double digit growth and first in – and this is a great SKU –
combined Unix+Windows+Linux units and revenue.
