"Generative AI segment will hold highest CAGR in the forecast period."
Generative AI is expected to exhibit high growth rate due to a rise in demand for advanced AI applications across industries. Generative AI powers capabilities like content creation, language models, and image synthesis, all of which depends heavily on substantial computational power to train and run large neural networks. This demand requires high infrastructure investments, with an emphasis on high-performance GPU and DPU capabilities able to support intensive processing requirements. As more enterprises seek to capitalize on generative AI's potential, the market for AI infrastructure will rise. In November 2024, GMO Internet Group, Inc. (Japan) launched the GMO GPU Cloud, powered by NVIDIA Corporation's (US) H200 Tensor Core GPUs, Spectrum-X Ethernet, BlueField-3 DPUs, and NVIDIA AI Enterprise software, exemplifies the kind of specialized infrastructure needed to support generative AI at scale. This infrastructure, developed on Dell PowerEdge servers, is aligned to support the needs of production-grade generative AI applications, with reduced latency and high-bandwidth capability. Such innovations underline industry momentum in wide-scale deployment of infrastructure optimized for generative AI workloads. Further, this makes the local high-performance cloud solutions to be drivers for growth of this segment.
"Enterprises is projected to grow at a high CAGR of AI Infrastructure market during the forecasted timeline"
The enterprise segment is expected to record high growth in AI Infrastructure Market. Enterprises are increasingly adopting AI infrastructure as they use AI to facilitate digital transformation, enhance operational efficiency, and enhance customer experience. Manufacturing, finance, and retail enterprises are increasing their investments in AI powered predictive analysis, process automation, and customer insight tools that require robust and scalable AI infrastructure. Enterprises are also expanding their AI capabilities by investing in private cloud infrastructure and hybrid cloud models, especially as they seek to protect sensitive data while benefiting from cloud-based AI's flexibility and innovation. Companies are providing cloud and on-premises flexibility along with comprehensive support that aligns with enterprise needs for adaptable, high-performance AI resources that can integrate with existing IT environments. In February 2024, Cisco and NVIDIA announced a partnership to bring AI infrastructure solutions tailored for data centers, designed to streamline deployment and management while offering high computing power necessary for enterprise AI. Its joint offering includes flexible AI infrastructure options for cloud-based and on-premises enterprises, as well as robust networking, security, and end-to-end observability features. Such collaborations support the growth of enterprise AI infrastructure market because companies demand scalable, secure, and manageable infrastructure for the deployment of AI solutions.
"Asia Pacific is expected to hold high CAGR in during the forecast period."
AI infrastructure market in Asia Pacific will grow at a high CAGR during the forecast period. Countries like China, Japan, South Korea, and India are at the forefront of AI innovation and governments and private sectors in the region are making high investments in AI research, infrastructure, and talent development. In September 2024 Lenovo (Hong Kong) announced its mass manufacturing operations for high-performance AI servers in India, and it also unveiled a cutting-edge research & development (R&D) lab, adding to the advancement of Lenovo's Infrastructure Solutions. These are the significant efforts that Lenovo has taken towards the significant positioning of India as a hub in innovation and manufacturing, while supporting 'Make in India' and 'AI for All' vision by the Indian government. Initiatives like these will speed up region's leadership in AI technology and will lead to significant growth in AI infrastructure deployment across Asia Pacific industries.
