North America Micro Server IC Market - Overview

Micro servers are compact pieces of hardware that are used in low-power microprocessor chips and other locations where saving space is a top priority. DRAM, boot FLASH and power circuits are the only components of the server motherboard that are not shared by a single microprocessor. Thousands or millions of semiconductors, such as resistors, transistors, or capacitors, are included in a micro server IC. As a chip, micro server ICs are used for computation. Nanometer-sized transistors are seen in micro server ICs.

Growth Drivers

Low power consumption and low space utilization of micro servers

Micro servers consume less energy and occupy less space than traditional high-end servers. Micro servers rely on low-power integrated circuits (ICs) similar to those found in consumer computers. Also, stripped-down silicon in micro servers consumes significantly less power than the 90-W-plus TDP of processors in high-end servers, with micro server chips frequently having a TDP of less than 45 W and dropping to sub-10 W levels. Because of the low power and space requirements of micro servers, businesses can pack more processing power into a given amount of space while using less electricity than standard server solutions. This contributes to lower electricity bills and, as a result, significantly lowers data center operating costs.

Rising demand for web hosting and cloud computing

Increased demand for cloud computing and web hosting is a significant factor propelling the micro server IC market. Since online site hosting and cloud storage have become more affordable in recent years, demand for both services has increased. Cloud service providers must now process, store, and secure more data as a result of cloud computing. To offer cloud computing services at a fair price, several service providers compete. Several small and medium-sized enterprises are likely to prefer micro server ICs over conventional full-fledged enterprise-class servers because they demand less of an initial investment.

Restraints

Application-specific nature of micro servers necessitates the use of multiple servers for different applications.

The scale-out design of micro servers makes them ideal for application-specific use. Thus, they are best suited to specific workload environments such as web hosting. To increase capacity, users must increase the number of nodes and accompanying software to handle heavy workloads. When compared to other standard servers, where such system upgrades are typically not required, this restriction of the micro server acts as a constraint for the micro server market. As technology advances, manufacturers may be able to overcome this limitation of micro servers this decade.

Impact of COVID-19 on the North America Micro Server IC Market

COVID-19 outbreak significantly impacted the North America micro server IC market. Electronic and semiconductor manufacturing facilities have been closed due to the economic downturn and labor shortages. COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a significant and long-term decline in production utilization, and travel restrictions and facility closures have kept workers out of their factories, causing the micro server integrated circuit (IC) industry's growth to slow in 2020. The pandemic, on the other hand, has accelerated existing trends in remote work, e-commerce, and automation, creating enormous post-pandemic opportunities for micro server IC.
