The new 1st quarter 2010 Worldwide Data Corp. numbers are out for that worldwide server market. According to the marketplace researcher, Windows Server is still the runaway leader, with regards to working system unit shipments, and in addition nonetheless in first place in terms of revenues compared to Unix and Linux.In Q1 2010,Microsoft Office 2010 Professional, Windows Server was put in on seventy five.3 percent with the servers sold globally. Linux was on twenty.eight percent of the servers and Unix on only 3.6 percent. Each Windows Server and Linux grew in share from Q4 2009 to Q1 2010; Unix declined slightly.On the income aspect with the home, Windows Server-based techniques brought in 48.9 % with the dollars worldwide, IDC stated. Unix was No. two with 22 percent and Linux, third, with 16.two percent. As within the case of models, Unix-based systems misplaced share between Q4 2009 and Q1 2010.Here are IDC;s most recent figures, along with the equivalent IDC information for Q4 2009. Notice the percentages don;t total one hundred. That is because IDC consists of an unspecified “other” category which is not included here.Q1 2010 unitsWindows 1,379,487 (75.3%)

Quarterly income of $5.1 billion for Windows servers represented 48.9% of overall quarterly factory revenue. This is the highest percentage of server hardware revenue that Windows servers have ever represented.Unix servers experienced 29.0% revenue decline when in contrast to 1Q09 as customers waited for additional detail on the Sun-Oracle server roadmap. They were also anticipating a ramp of IBM POWER7 servers, which began shipping in Q1, and, separately, HP Integrity servers determined by Intel Itanium 9300 processors that were announced in April. Globally Unix revenues were $2.three billion for that quarter, representing 22.2% of quarterly server spending (down 10.5 points over 1Q09). Microsoft is expected to deliver a first beta of Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack (SP) 1 — and,Microsoft Office 2007 Key, by extension, Windows 7 SP1 — any time now. I wouldn;t be surprised to see the Softies announce and/or deliver that beta next week, in conjunction together with the company;s Tech Ed conference. Even though Microsoft has been advising IT admins not to wait for SP1 to move to Windows Server 2008 R2, a number of organizations still insist on waiting for SP1 before moving to a new version of Windows.Microsoft officials stated earlier this year that Windows 7 SP1 would be a conglomeration of bug fixes and updates, and would not include any new features. On the server side, SP1 will include two new virtualiztion features, Microsoft officials have said.These new features include a new graphics acceleration platform,Office Pro Plus 2010, known as RemoteFX, which is depending on desktop-remoting technology that Microsoft obtained in 2008 when it acquired Calista Technologies. There also will be a new addition to Hyper-V that will dynamically adjust memory of a guest virtual machine on demand.
