Description

This talk will give an overview of the hardware procurement activities carried in the IT department in the last 2-3 years, highlighting the achieved results in the acquisition of computing and storage equipment during LS2 and moving to the preparation for PCC.
Together with the figures and the data, it will also be covered how the recent issues in the global supply chain affected the procurement process, the infrastructure planning and the support for production hardware already deployed.
Finally, current and future hardware trends will be presented both in the context of the usage at CERN, for HEP and for IT services, as well as in the general market.
