Recent reports suggest that Dell has about 70 percent of the market for servers in data centers that deliver cloud-based services in the United States and close to 60 percent in China.
Amit Midha, head of Dells operations in the China and South Asia, in a Bloomberg.com news report, lists Facebook and Google among the customers bolstering the company’s dominant market share in the US while Baidu, Tencent Holdings, and Alibaba account for a considerable amount of its Chinese business.
China is Dell’s largest market outside of the US and from the looks of it will remain so. Dell intends to double the number of service centers there to 2,000 as well as boost sales outlets, which currently number 1,500.
Furthermore, Dell plans to acquire companies to continue growth and innovation in the data center arena. Dell reported net income climbed from $341 million to $945 million in the last quarter as data center operations thrived.
Chief Executive Officer, Michael Dell said, “Were moving much more into the core of IT and the data center, increasingly with our own intellectual property”. Dell added that the company plans to build data centers in 10 countries worldwide.
