digital hub

Connected services nexus

A digital hub is a central device or platform that connects and coordinates multiple digital services or devices.

Originally the term described a home computer linking cameras, music players, and other electronics.

Now it often refers to software platforms or smart devices—like a smart speaker—that integrate various apps, services, or connected home systems: The tablet serves as our digital hub for streaming and home automation.
