As an authoritative ranking in the server industry, the Market Guide for Servers is a key reference for global users for evaluating different server options. Gartner analyzed and assessed server vendors worldwide comprehensively from multiple perspectives, including market positioning, technology trends, and market analysis, and identified a group of representative vendors. H3C has long been deeply involved in the digital and intelligent transformation of enterprises worldwide, dedicated to building a sustainable digital future by leveraging its computing power, and has continued to lead the server market for many years. The inclusion of H3C in the list further underscores the industry's appreciation for its achievements in the field of computing.

Adapting to the Trend and Consolidating a Diversified Computing Power System

According to the Market Guide for Servers, enterprise servers have emerged as a primary driving force behind innovation in server technology, systems and architecture. Enterprises must employ diverse products tailored to their specific workloads to boost efficiency and reduce operational costs.

In 2022, H3C collaborated with key partners such as Intel and AMD to launch the H3C UniServer G6 and the HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers. These products are suitable for both general and heterogeneous computing, further strengthening the diversified computing power system. At the recently concluded 2023 NVIDIA GTC, H3C showcased servers incorporating the latest NVIDIA GPU and DPU products. The new diversified computing power system can work with the intelligent computing center and the intelligent management center to continuously boost server capabilities. The ecosystem's synergy with the two centers brings greater efficiency and enhanced computing power. Users can leverage this synergy to explore the transformation towards intelligent computing and enable a wide range of industries to innovate their applications.

Driving Sustainable Growth in the Computing Industry through Continuous Innovation

Amid the extensive and profound green industrial revolution focused on carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, low-carbon and sustainable development will serve as critical indicators for high-value data centers. The Market Guide for Servers also states that as computing demands continue to grow, an increasing number of enterprises are adopting sustainable development as their primary business driver. More and more customers are prioritizing environmental sustainability management for data centers.

As a practitioner and promoter of the dual carbon strategy, H3C is committed to offering users smarter and greener computing power. A number of H3C's server products were featured in the 2022 Computing Infrastructure Enhancement Initiative - Product Catalog released by the Open Data Center Committee (ODCC). Among them, the H3C UniServer R4950 G6, designed for general computing, and the R5350 G6, optimized for AI applications, were recognized with the prestigious Excellent Product Award. Notably, the R5350 G6 was the only AI server to receive this honor. Additionally, the R4900LC G5 received a double five-star rating in recognition of its excellent computing power, computing efficiency, and energy-saving and carbon-reducing capabilities. As a result, it was selected as a low-carbon product and solution for data centers in the Zero-Carbon Computing Power Co-Building Plan, a joint initiative between the ODCC, the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT), and the News Center of China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. It was the only excellent server product selected for the plan.
