A white box server refers to customized servers that are either home built, or built by white box suppliers called ODMs (Original Design Manufacturers) such as Supermicro. The term white box simply means that the equipment is unbranded or generic. All parts are purchased separately which helps cut costs as well as provides hobbyists and data center professionals alike more customization to better fit their needs. The ease of customization allows for individual parts to be replaced, rather than replacing the entire server when equipment fails. It is characterized by cheap price, unified purchase, high degree of customization, and at the same time, it can save unnecessary power and energy.
The Global White Box Servers Market Size is Estimated to be USD 53.74 billion in 2028
