Let&#8217;s see why that&#8217;s the case.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image\">\n<p class=\"caption\">Image source: Getty Images.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"my-6 text-2xl font-bold\">Dell&#8217;s servers play a central role in the proliferation of AI<\/h2>\n<p>Dell manufactures AI-optimized servers that are deployed in data centers to run AI workloads. These AI servers integrate AI accelerator chips, storage, networking, and cooling solutions, enabling hyperscalers and AI companies to run AI workloads efficiently in data centers.<\/p>\n<p>This explains why Dell&#8217;s AI servers are in tremendous demand. The company&#8217;s AI revenue jumped by more than fourfold in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 (which ended on Jan. 30, 2026). The good news for Dell investors is that the company anticipates $50 billion in AI revenue in the current fiscal year, up 103% from the previous year.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t be surprised if Dell exceeds expectations. That&#8217;s because the company reports phenomenal demand for its AI servers, as evidenced by the $34.1 billion worth of new AI orders it booked in fiscal Q4. Dell closed the previous fiscal year with an order backlog of $43 billion. That number could keep swelling, as Dell has the highest market share in AI servers.<\/p>\n<p>ABI Research estimates that Dell accounted for a fifth of the AI server market in 2024. The research firm estimates that the AI server market could grow at an annual rate of 18% through 2030, reaching $524 billion in annual revenue by the end of the decade.<\/p>\n<p>Dell is clearly growing faster than the end market, indicating that its share of this lucrative space is increasing.
