This is hard to answer. In theory, a mainframe computer can be used for just about anything. In practice, their use for many things is not appropriate. The most appropriate use of a mainframe computer is for applications that pass huge amounts of data using programs with little or no direct interaction with an end user. This is usually called "batch processing."
