Intel has been pulling the plug on most of its non-core businesses, including Intel Optane, Intel network switches, and most lately, Intel 5G modems, now it is time to say goodbye to Intel's server building business, selling it to MiTAC, a parent company to Tyan.

While Intel was never a big player in the complete server system hardware market, it has, or rather had, a decent product lineup. Nevertheless, the company is following its IDM 2.0 strategy laid down by Pat Gelsinger, who took the reins as the CEO back in 2021 and made the decision to sell off its Data Center Solutions Group (DSG).



According to the statement provided to ServeTheHome, Intel is giving the right to manufacture and sell products based on Intel's own designs to MiTAC, an edge-to-cloud IT solutions provider and ODM partner of Intel DSG.

"In line with Intel's continued efforts to prioritize investments in its IDM 2.0 strategy, we have made the difficult decision to exit our Data Center Solutions Group (DSG). As part of this plan, MiTAC, an edge-to-cloud IT solutions provider and longstanding ODM partner of DSG, will have the right to manufacture and sell products based on our designs. We are focused on ensuring the DSG team and its stakeholders are supported during this transition," Intel spokesperson said to ServeTheHome.

Vertical and horizontal integration - next we hear they are selling off their silicon mining and refining company....

Network switches and modems seem like a great area for AMD to expand to via Xilinx. Just as long as they're less buggy than Intel's.
