Microsoft predicts: Data center resource shortage crisis will continue until 2026

Jinse Finance reported that the duration of Microsoft's data center shortage will last longer than the company previously expected, and many data center regions in the United States will face issues of physical space or server shortages. According to people familiar with the company's internal forecasts, new subscriptions to Azure cloud services will be restricted in some key server farm centers, including Northern Virginia and Texas, until the first half of next year. The lack of servers available for leasing to customers has been a recurring concern for cloud providers. Microsoft, Amazon, and Google have all described similar constraints, and Microsoft is working to balance customer demand for its data center fleet.
