Dell Shakes the Tech World Record $33B Revenue Driven by 342% Surge in AI Servers.
Dell Technologies Hits Historic Milestone: Q4 2026 Revenue Surges 39% Fueled by AI Server Demand

Dell has reported record-breaking financial results for its fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026, ending January 30. The company achieved its highest revenue in history, driven by an unprecedented surge in demand for AI-optimized servers. Total revenue reached $33.38 billion, a 39% increase year-over-year, with a GAAP net income of $2.26 billion.

Business Segment Performance

  • Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG): This segment posted revenue of $19.60 billion, up 73% year-over-year. The standout performer was the AI server portfolio, which generated $8.95 billion a massive 342% increase compared to the previous year.

  • Client Solutions Group (CSG): Revenue rose 14% to $13.49 billion. Growth was primarily driven by the Commercial sector (up 16%), while Consumer revenue remained flat.

The "AI Backlog" Powering the Future

Jeff Clarke, Vice Chairman and COO of Dell, described the past year as "historic." He revealed that total AI server orders have surpassed $64 billion, with over $25 billion already shipped. Dell enters the new fiscal year with a record-high backlog of $43 billion, signaling sustained momentum for the AI infrastructure market.

Dell has built its competitive advantage as an "end-to-end AI infrastructure" provider, from developer workstations to giant server racks in data centers, making it a preferred supplier for large companies.

Dell's success in 2026 is partly due to its closest partnership with NVIDIA, particularly on the "AI Factory" project, which allowed Dell to secure Blackwell and Vera Rubin chips faster than other manufacturers in the market.

The 16% growth in the commercial segment reflects organizations beginning to replace employee computers with "AI PCs" (equipped with powerful NPUs) to support AI features in Windows 12 and modern enterprise software. This is the second wave that will generate revenue for Dell beyond servers.

Dell's ability to consistently deliver despite having a $43 billion backlog demonstrates excellent global supply chain management, especially in the procurement of liquid cooling components, a key bottleneck for AI servers in 2026.

  CXMT Shakes RAM Market: Chinese Giant Offers DDR4 at Half Price Amid Surging Global Costs According to a report by The Korea Herald , citing anonymous industry sources, the Chinese memory manufacturer CXMT (ChangXin Memory Technologies) has begun offering DDR4 chips at nearly 50% below the current market price . This aggressive pricing strategy comes at a critical time. Over the past year, the price of an 8Gb DDR4 chip has skyrocketed eightfold , reaching a market high of $11.50 per chip . The price surge has been so severe that major PC manufacturers like HP and Dell have reportedly begun quality-testing CXMT’s chips to diversify their supply chains and cut costs. The Shift Toward AI and HBM While the focus remains on DDR4 and DDR5, CXMT is simultaneously upgrading its facilities to produce HBM3 and HBM3e (High Bandwidth Memory) . These high-margin chips are essential for AI data centers. Although CXMT has yet to master HBM4  the industry’s current "Holy Grail" in ter...

The Fall of the Walled Garden: How EU Regulation is Rewriting the iPhone’s DNA in 2026 For over a decade, the "Golden Rule" for iPhone users was simple: "If you want an app, you get it from the App Store ." However, in 2026, this ironclad policy has been shattered across the European Union (EU). Driven by the Digital Markets Act (DMA) , a landmark antitrust regulation, the EU has successfully forced Apple to dismantle its long-standing monopoly. Breaking the Gatekeeper’s Grip The EU identifies Apple as a "Gatekeeper" a tech giant with excessive control over software access. Under the DMA, Apple has been compelled to open iOS to several transformative changes: Third-Party App Stores: Users can now install marketplaces like the Epic Games Store or AltStore. Web Distribution: Developers can offer direct app downloads from their official websites. Browser Choice: Third-party browsers (like Chrome or Firefox) are no longer forced to use Apple’s WebKit engine...

  Apple Implements Strict Age Verification in Global Markets: New API Requirements for Developers Apple has officially notified developers of a significant policy update regarding age verification for apps distributed in Australia, Brazil, Singapore, and the United States (specifically Utah and Louisiana) . This move is designed to comply with evolving regional safety laws and introduces the Declared Age Range API , allowing developers to seamlessly verify the age group of their users. Global Rollout and 18+ Restrictions Starting February 24, 2026 , all apps rated 18+ in Australia, Singapore, and Brazil must verify a user’s age before the download can proceed. While the App Store already provides an initial layer of verification, developers now have the option and in some cases, the obligation—to implement secondary checks through the new API. Brazil’s Crackdown on Loot Boxes In a notable regional twist, Brazil has introduced a zero-tolerance policy for gambling-like mechanics. ...
