👉 Host computing refers to the process where a host computer, typically a mainframe or a powerful server, acts as an intermediary between users and the actual computing resources, such as storage, processing power, or specialized hardware. When a user requests a service or application, the host computer translates this request into a command that can be executed by the underlying hardware. The host manages resources, handles user authentication and permissions, and ensures efficient communication between the user interface and the actual computing resources. This abstraction layer simplifies user interaction, enhances security, and allows for scalable resource allocation, making it a fundamental concept in distributed computing environments.
