Industry Spotlight: Enterprise Computing Commodities to Watch

Among the seven sectors covered in this month’s Greensheet, the Enterprise section stands out as particularly insightful, as this year has been marked by supply and demand fluctuations across core enterprise components, highlighting areas for strategic sourcing.

Within the enterprise commodity group, the RDIMM market has seen prices stabilize after consistent increases, with only moderate hikes expected in Q4 2024. However, demand outside the AI sector remains inconsistent, making sourcing visibility a challenge for procurement professionals to navigate. The SSD market shows strong demand in data centers and cloud services, but persistent NAND supply issues will likely impact pricing in the months ahead.

CPU supply has been uneven, with Intel and AMD both facing selective shortages, though prices remain relatively stable. The GPU market faces a unique set of challenges, with Nvidia’s chip transition and supply chain delays temporarily softening demand. However, strong backlog orders signal growth on the horizon, likely leading to tighter supplies and potential price pressures.

In contrast, the HBM sector has seen dramatic constraints, as AI-driven demand surges have pushed both prices and lead times upward. Similarly, HDDs are experiencing logistical hurdles, especially for high-capacity models, with demand expected to outstrip supply due to new ordering protocols from Seagate.

These dynamics offer a clear picture of market trends heading into 2025, highlighting areas where procurement teams can strategize for optimal sourcing.
