E-mail Print PDF

EMEA server shipments totalled just over 490,000 units in Q2 2009 (decline of 32%) and server revenue totaled $3 billion in Q2 (decline of 36% from the same quarter last year.)

In the x86 market, total volumes in EMEA declined 31% compared Q2 2008. HP (No.1 spot) declined 31%. IBM (No. 2) and Dell (No. 3) showed the largest declines in the top five at 35%.

RISC and Itanium UNIX revenues declined 38% in Q2. Of the top five vendors in this segment, Sun regained the No. 1 despite a decline of 40%. IBM (No. 2) was the least impacted but still fell 22%. HP (No. 3) posted a 45% decline. Bull (No. 4) fell 46%. And Fujitsu (No. 5) suffered largest decline of 73% due to weakness in demand in key countries such as Germany and a greater focus on its x86 product portfolio.
