👉 Lotus Computing is an innovative approach to computing that emphasizes simplicity, efficiency, and user-friendliness. It was pioneered by Sun Microsystems in the late 1980s and early 1990s, focusing on creating a computing environment that could be easily accessed and operated by non-technical users. The concept revolves around the Lotus Notes platform, which introduced a web-based email and collaboration system that was accessible through any browser, eliminating the need for complex installations or specialized hardware. Lotus Computing also introduced Lotus Calc, a spreadsheet application that simplified data management and analysis, and Lotus Reactor, an early web-based application server. The philosophy behind Lotus Computing is to democratize technology by making it accessible, intuitive, and powerful, enabling users to focus on their tasks rather than the underlying technology.
