A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain and you have quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Web. As an illustration, many websites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The best thing about employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent site and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for pupils on top of the primary school site. If you work with subdomains instead of subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular site, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the sites separate from each other.
