A Hostname is a unique Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) which contains a domain and a computer name for the purpose of identifying each computer that is used in the internet. It could be one or a group of labels which helps in identifying a computer in the domain name system(DNS) hierarchy.
Hope this helps.
