What is claimed is: 1. A computing system comprising: a control unit, including a processor, configured to: determine a host profile for representing a requesting host corresponding to a processing request; calculate an instance budget, based on the number of commands issued by the requesting host, at a communication endpoint from an overall resource of the communication endpoint for controlling the processing request at the communication endpoint; and process the processing request for the requesting host includes inn the overall resource, by a ratio, a weight, a priority, or a combination thereof for the requesting host; and a communication mechanism, coupled to the control unit, configured to respond to the processing request from the requesting host based on the host profile and priority of the requesting host, wherein the communication mechanism corresponds to a virtual function identifier and a configurable physical function identifier to support the instance budget. 2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to: calculate a consumption prediction for predicting a device access-credit for an upcoming instance of a processing segment; and calculate the instance budget based on the consumption prediction. 3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to calculate the instance budget at the communication endpoint including a data provider for consuming the processing request. 4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to: determine the host profile including the connection identifier, the physical function identifier, a virtual function identifier, or a combination thereof for representing the requesting host; and calculate the instance budget based on the connection identifier, the physical function identifier, the virtual function identifier, or a combination thereof. 5. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to calculate the instance budget corresponding to an instance of a processing segment for processing the processing request at the communication endpoint. 6. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to: to receive the processing request at the communication endpoint for processing the processing request from the requesting host; calculate the instance budget for a processing segment based on the processing request; and generate a processing result at the communication endpoint according to the instance budget in response to the processing request, the processing result corresponding to the processing segment. 7. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to: calculate a consumption prediction based on the host profile, the processing request, or a combination thereof for predicting a device access-credit for the processing segment; and calculate the instance budget based on the consumption prediction. 8. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the control unit is configured to calculate the instance budget at the communication endpoint including a smart-storage device for consuming the processing request for the processing result. 9. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the control unit is configured to: calculate a device access-credit for representing the overall resource utilized for the requesting host; and generate the processing result with the device access-credit not exceeding the instance budget. 10. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the control unit is configured to: calculate a device access-credit corresponding to the processing segment for representing the overall resource utilized for the requesting host during the processing segment; and reset the device access-credit for each instance of the processing segment. 11. A method of operation of a computing system comprising: determining a host profile for representing a requesting host corresponding to a processing request; calculating an instance budget, based on the number of commands issued by the requesting host, at a communication endpoint from an overall resource of the communication endpoint for controlling the processing request at the communication endpoint; processing the processing request for the requesting host includes dividing the overall resource by a ratio, a weight, a priority, or a combination thereof for the requesting host; and responding to the processing request from the requesting host based on the host profile and the priority of the requesting host, corresponds to a virtual function identifier and configuring a physical function identifier for supporting the instance budget. 12. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein calculating the instance budget includes: calculating a consumption prediction for predicting a device access-credit for an upcoming instance of a processing segment; and calculating the instance budget based on the consumption prediction. 13. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein calculating the instance budget includes calculating the instance budget at the communication endpoint including a data provider for consuming the processing request. 14. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein: determining the host profile includes determining the host profile including a connection identifier, the physical function identifier, the virtual function identifier, or a combination thereof for representing the requesting host; and calculating the instance budget includes calculating the instance budget based on the connection identifier, the physical function identifier, the virtual function identifier, or a combination thereof. 15. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein calculating the instance budget includes calculating the instance budget corresponding to an instance of a processing segment for processing the processing request at the communication endpoint. 16. A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions for a computing system comprising: determining a host profile for representing a requesting host corresponding to a processing request; calculating an instance budget, based on the number of commands issued by the requesting host, at a communication endpoint from an overall resource of the communication endpoint for controlling the processing request at the communication endpoint; processing the processing request for the requesting host in di din the resource by a ratio, a weight, a priority, or a combination thereof for the requesting host; and responding to the processing request from the requesting host based on the host profile and the priority of the requesting host, corresponds to a virtual function identifier and configuring a physical function identifier for supporting the instance budget. 17. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 16 wherein calculating the instance budget includes: calculating a consumption prediction for predicting a device access-credit for an upcoming instance of a processing segment; and calculating the instance budget based on the consumption prediction. 18. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 16 wherein calculating the instance budget includes calculating the instance budget at the communication endpoint including a data provider for consuming the processing request. 19. The non-transitory computer readable medium as claimed in claim 16 wherein: determining the host profile includes determining the host profile including a connection identifier, the physical
