IDC: In the first half of 2026, vendor revenue in China's liquid cooling server market increased by 153.1% year over year.

Zhitong Finance APP has learned that International Data Corporation (IDC) China Liquid Cooling Server Tracker shows that in the first half of 2026, vendor revenue in China's liquid cooling server market grew 153.1% year on year, and shipments are expected to post a compound annual growth rate of nearly 49% over the next five years. But what is more noteworthy than the growth rate is the change taking place on the procurement side: an increasing number of high-density computing projects no longer select products on a per-"unit" basis, but instead treat computing nodes, inter-node interconnection, power supply, and in-rack liquid cooling accessories as a complete system for configuration and delivery.
