Shane Snider,Senior News Writer,Data Center Knowledge June 25, 2026 4 Min Read A Qualcomm Dragonfly AI server rack displayed at Computex in Taipei, Taiwan, on June 1, 2026.CHENG CHIA HUANG/GETTY IMAGES Qualcomm has announced a multigenerational CPU deal with Meta, secured two hyperscale customers, introduced a new AI inference server architecture, and projected over $15 billion in annual data center revenue by fiscal 2029. The raft of announcements during the company’s Investor Day event marks its clearest attempt yet to position itself as a supplier of AI infrastructure rather than edge devices alone. “We’re building a data center platform. It’s a comprehensive portfolio of solutions,” Qualcomm President and CEO Cristiano Amon said. Investor Day expanded on a strategy Qualcomm previewed during its April earnings call, when executives disclosed they were pursuing hyperscalers, cloud providers, sovereign AI projects, and custom silicon engagements. At the time, Qualcomm said it expected initial shipments for a custom hyperscaler program later this year and promised additional customer announcements at Investor Day.

A Meta spokesperson told Data Center Knowledge the company is “embracing a flexible, portfolio-based approach, combining hardware from a range of partners with our own rapidly advancing MTIA silicon program.” The statement suggests Qualcomm will become one component of Meta’s expanding AI infrastructure rather than replacing the company’s in-house silicon efforts. For Qualcomm, the agreement carries significance beyond the initial revenue opportunity, said Matt Kimball, vice president and principal analyst for data center technologies at Moor Insights & Strategy. “One customer win doesn’t change the server CPU market overnight,” Kimball told Data Center Knowledge. “But it definitely expands the conversation.” Kimball said the Meta deal gives Qualcomm both revenue to fund future product development and validation from one of the world’s largest hyperscale operators, making it easier to pursue additional cloud customers. Two Hyperscalers, One Still Unnamed Tony Pialis, Qualcomm executive vice president and general manager of data center, said the company has secured two major hyperscale customers. “We have won two major hyperscaler deals that will contribute meaningful revenue to Qualcomm, starting at the end of this year,” he said.

Meta is one of the two hyperscalers. Qualcomm did not identify the second. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella endorsed Qualcomm’s High-Bandwidth Compute architecture during the event but stopped short of announcing a commercial deployment. A Broader Platform Play Rather than introducing a single server processor, Qualcomm outlined a portfolio spanning CPUs, AI accelerators, networking, custom silicon, and an open software stack strengthened by its acquisition of Modular. Pialis argued that conventional server architectures will not scale to agentic AI. “Traditional infrastructure will not scale to the needs of agentic AI,” he said. “The industry needs a paradigm shift.” Kimball said Qualcomm’s approach distinguishes it from competitors by addressing multiple layers of AI infrastructure rather than a single component. “The CPU/xPU opportunity is huge,” he said. “I think there is enough opportunity to support these players – and maybe a couple more.” He also pointed to Qualcomm’s acquisition of Modular as a potentially important differentiator. If the company can provide software that efficiently runs AI workloads across multiple silicon architectures, operators could gain greater flexibility as AI infrastructure becomes more heterogeneous.

The company did not disclose performance data or technical implementation details. Kimball said HBC could prove one of Qualcomm’s most important technology announcements if it performs as advertised. “If Qualcomm delivers what it’s describing, HBC could improve both inference performance and efficiency, particularly in disaggregated AI infrastructure where moving data efficiently is often as important as adding more compute,” he said. The data center business anchors Qualcomm’s latest diversification push. By fiscal 2029, the company expects: More than $15 billion in annual data center revenue $10 billion from automotive More than $14 billion from IoT $8 billion from industrial, networking, and robotics $6 billion from personal AI and compute Handsets would account for roughly one-third of Qualcomm’s chip revenue under that forecast. Kimball said the data center target is ambitious but achievable if Qualcomm continues adding hyperscale customers. “Hyperscale economics are different than enterprise infrastructure,” he said. “A relatively small number of large customer wins can translate into billions of dollars of annual revenue very quickly.” About the Author Shane Snider Senior News Writer, Data Center Knowledge Shane Snider is Senior News Writer at Data Center Knowledge, covering AI infrastructure, hyperscale data centers, cloud platforms, and the power and energy systems driving modern compute expansion.
