IDC: Inspur server market share 57% top last year China's AI market growth rate of 235%

[Introduction]: The AI ​​market has shown a spurt of growth. The report shows that China's AI market grew by 235% last year, of which 57% of the AI-based development wave server market ranked first.

According to the report, in 2017, the overall sales of China's AI server was 568 million US dollars, and the shipment volume was 27,863. From the competitive level, the wave of the market share was significantly ahead of other manufacturers, ranking first in the market, with shipments reaching 14,674 units. 324 million US dollars, accounting for 52.7% and 57% respectively, exceeding the total share of other manufacturers.

AI is still typhoon center GPU server accounted for 16.6% in the next five years

The original IDC report, AI "still in the typhoon center", the overall investment in the AI ​​market in 2017 reached 865 million US dollars, an increase of 240%, the compound growth rate will exceed 50% in the next 5 years, the AI ​​market includes hardware, software and services Three major segments.

Hardware system deployment is crucial for the development of AI, and is also the main component of the AI ​​market. In 2017, AI hardware sales increased by 235% year-on-year, accounting for 72.4% of the total AI market. It is estimated that the market capacity will reach US$3.77 billion by 2022, of which GPU Server purchases will reach $3.4 billion, accounting for 16.6% of the overall x86 server market.

AI enters the new era Internet is the main driving force

Internet operators are still the main force of AI development, with purchases of $407 million, accounting for 71.7% of the overall market.

2017 is a turning point in the development of AI. Prior to this, Tencent, Alibaba, Baidu invested in a professional AI infrastructure to support behavioral analysis, search, advertising click prediction and other operators' internal business systems. By 2017, almost all Internet operators began to increase AI business investment. To speed up the construction of AI infrastructure, some large CSPs began to provide AIAaS cloud services.

According to IDC data, the core of Inspur's market advantage comes from the Internet industry, with a market share of 68%. Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent TOP-class operators more than 90% of AI servers from the wave, today's headlines, HKUST, Netease, Ping An and other TIer2, TIer3 Internet operators and industry users are also in the bulk purchase of various AI infrastructure System solutions and products.

4GPU and 8GPU shipments increase

The AI ​​infrastructure is rapidly changing under the actual application. Taking the GPU server as an example, the number of GPUs supported by the server is increasing due to the bottleneck of the GPU cross-node communication. According to the IDC report, the proportion of 4GPU and 8GPU server shipments increased in 2017, with sales accounting for 36.9% and 25.8%, respectively.

Inspur is one of the most complete manufacturers of GPU server products. In 2017, it has released AI new products such as SR-AI whole cabinet server, AGX-2 supercomputer, GX4 AI accelerated expansion box. SR-AI is the world's first AI solution designed with PCIe Fabric interconnect architecture. It can realize a large expansion node supporting 16 GPUs. The solution supports up to 64 GPUs and solves the problem of power supply and heat dissipation. The product complies with the Scorpio 2.5 standard and is suitable for ultra-large-scale cloud data center deployment. The AGX-2 is the world's first server to integrate eight of the highest performance GPU accelerators in a 2U space. It is the highest performance AI infrastructure solution for a variety of data center environments.

Traditional industries cannot be ignored

Although the current AI development and application main force is the Internet operator, the traditional industry will be a larger development space for AI in the future, especially in the financial, telecommunications, retail, medical and health industries, AI applications will be faster, restricting AI in the tradition. The main problem of industry application is the lack of user technical capabilities, especially the deployment and operation of AI system solutions.

While continuously consolidating the advantages of the Internet, Inspur has built a complete AI system platform, namely computing platform, management suite, framework optimization, and application acceleration. It includes AI server series such as GPU and FPGA, and deep learning training cluster management software AIStaTIon. Complete solution such as AI performance tuning tool Teye and clustered open source deep learning framework Caffe-MPI.

Peng Zhen, vice president of Inspur Group, said that Inspur is building an AI industry ecosystem that is deeply embedded in the industry scene, and together with partners to provide end-to-end AI overall solutions to promote AI's broader commercialization scenarios.

New era shaping new pattern

Peng Zhen said that the cloud computing transformation at the data center level and the AI ​​transformation at the application level will promote the innovation and reconstruction of the infrastructure industry. The rapid growth of Inspur's performance will benefit from the four dynamics. The innovative JDM business model, smart factory production, and openness Calculating the advance layout of the propulsion and AI market, deep AI will still be one of the core strategies of the 2018 wave.

At the just-concluded IPF18 Inspur Cloud Data Center Partner Conference, Inspur launched a new AI brand, TensorServer, and launched the T plan. Inspur hopes to seize the two development opportunities in the new era and become the world's largest computing solution provider within five years.

As the leading cloud computing cloud recognition leader in China, Inspur is an advanced information technology product and solution service provider with gratifying results and more in-depth information. It can pay attention to the China IOT Conference, and there will be unexpected surprises. Current opportunities for artificial intelligence development.
