Global AI Server Shipment

Global AI Server Shipment Forecasts See a Noticeable Decline Following Geopolitical Tensions & Tariff Uncertainty



The AI server market is expected to see a decline in YoY growth forecasts, following the uncertainty from US export restrictions, and disruptions in supply chain from geopolitical tensions.
Microsoft, Meta & Google Are Continuing With Their AI Spending With Full Force, But There's a Short-term Slowdown

The AI bandwagon is moving around with full force around the globe, particularly in North America, where Big Tech is spending massive revenue on creating AI infrastructure. However, based on a report by TrendForce, the uncertainty around President Trump's tariff policies and the recent geopolitical tensions have revised the global AI shipment forecasts, and have now seen a decline, from 28% to 24.3%. While they are still expected to maintain double-digit growth, the decrease is mainly attributed to the supply chain disruptions with evolving trade polices and regional tensions.

As far as Big Tech is concerned, TrendForce says that their CapEx towards AI development isn't slowing down anytime soon, as firms like Microsoft are deploying NVIDIA's new servers at a consistent rate. The Blackwell Ultra GB300 AI servers are more popular among the tech giants for now, but more importantly, NVIDIA has seen a widespread dominance over the AI server segment in the past few quarters. Microsoft also invested into creating an in-house AI chip, but it didn't manage to meet expectations, and the project is now delayed to 2026.



Similarly, firms like Google and Meta are also consistently deploying AI servers, with both firms focusing on their in-house ASICs. The firms are core NVIDIA customers, but they are said to be focusing on AMD's rack-scale solutions as well, which shows that the market wants diversity in the segment, but still, Team Green retains its lead by a considerable margin. However, the focus on homegrown AI chips is more than ever, with Google leading the space with their Tensor Processing Units (TPUs).

Detecting Co-Resident Attacks in 5G Clouds! Detecting co-resident attacks in 5G clouds involves identifying malicious activities where attackers share physical cloud resources with victims to steal data or disrupt services. Techniques like machine learning, behavioral analysis, and resource monitoring help detect unusual patterns, ensuring stronger security and privacy in 5G cloud environments. Detecting Co-Resident Attacks in 5G Clouds In a 5G cloud environment, many different users (including businesses and individuals) share the same physical infrastructure through virtualization technologies like Virtual Machines (VMs) and containers. Co-resident attacks occur when a malicious user manages to place their VM or container on the same physical server as a target. Once co-residency is achieved, attackers can exploit shared resources like CPU caches, memory buses, or network interfaces to gather sensitive information or launch denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Why are Co-Resident Attack...
                        Neural Networks Neural networks are computing systems inspired by the human brain, consisting of layers of interconnected nodes (neurons). They process data by learning patterns from input, enabling tasks like image recognition, language translation, and decision-making. Neural networks power many AI applications by adjusting internal weights through training with large datasets.                                                    Structure of a Neural Network Input Layer : This is where the network receives data. Each neuron in this layer represents a feature in the dataset (e.g., pixels in an image or values in a spreadsheet). Hidden Layers : These layers sit between the input and output layers. They perform calculations and learn patterns. The more hidden layers a ne...
