In IT, a platform is any hardware or software used to host an application or service. An application platform, for example, consists of hardware, an operating system and coordinating programs that use the instruction set for a particular processor or microprocessor.
Similarly, a web server application may be considered a platform because it is used to operate the business' storefront or user/partner portal. Software stacks -- combinations of software components -- that allow the deployment of other complex services for the business may also be referred to as platforms.
