TrendForce raised its 2026 AI server shipment growth forecast to nearly 31% from
28%, citing surging AI infrastructure demand. The research house estimates total
capex by nine major cloud service providers (CSPs) will climb about 90% YoY in
2026. Hyperscalers and Tier‑2 data centers have noticeably increased purchases
of NVIDIA GB/VR rack‑scale AI server solutions, and Google and AWS
next‑generation ASIC platforms are expected to ramp in H2 2026. TrendForce also
flagged expanded adoption of domestic Chinese AI solutions to support cloud LLM
workloads as an additional demand driver.
