The most likely way risc-v makes it into the datacenter imo is through AI accelerator chips like tenstorrent. Initially this will not replace traditional compute but merely be deployed alongside it. If the cores prove to be fast for general purpose compute, someone will use them for that, since they are already available. From there I can imagine dedicated servers (although still likely aimed at niche workloads for some time)
