Bible 3Q24 – Hyperscale & Cloud: AI spending spree, CPU servers about to recover?
Today, we are publishing the Hyperscale & Cloud section of our 25th Tech Infrastructure Quarterly Bible. The Tech Bible is a must-read for any tech investor, as it summarizes the quarterly earnings reports from the over 140 companies we track, providing an update on our key perspectives and convictions. In the coming weeks we will publish sections on Automotive, Telecom Equipment, Industrials, Enterprise IT, Ride sharing & Delivery, and Foundry.Hyperscale revenues grew 13% YoY, with cloud services accelerating slightly, driven by strong demand for both traditional & AI infrastructure. Capex grew 62% YoY, with Microsoft, Meta and AWS guiding for further growth in 4Q and 2025. Consensus expectations increased 9%, and we expect another 5-15% further revisions for Nvidia to land between sell-side & buy side expectations. Traditional infrastructure spend is recovering, with memory vendors guiding for further growth in 2025. AMD keeps gaining share in datacenter GPUs and CPUs. AI Ethernet solutions are ramping, making room for Arista to exceed its 2025 AI guide, and further momentum beyond.
