A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. As an example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The main advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for students in addition to the primary school site. If you are using subdomains rather than subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular site, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the sites separate from one another.
