What company makes the most servers?

Wow, who makes the most servers? That's a good question! I was actually wondering about this the other day when I was reading an article about cloud computing – it made me think about all the physical hardware involved. You know? Anyway, it turns out it's pretty much a two-horse race between Dell and HPE. They're like the Coke and Pepsi of the server world.

These two really dominate. I mean, dominate. Something like 61% of global server sales in 2023! Crazy, right? It's kinda like how, I don't know, maybe Nike and Adidas control the sneaker market...or is that an exaggeration? I'm not sure, but you get the idea. A lot of power held by just two companies.

From what I’ve read, Dell usually ships out more units – like, sheer numbers of boxes leaving the warehouse. But HPE often makes more money overall. So, it's a bit of a tricky one to answer definitively. Maybe HPE focuses on higher-end, more expensive servers? That would make sense. It's like, do you sell a ton of basic t-shirts or a smaller number of fancy designer dresses? Both can be successful strategies, huh?
