A subdomain is the part of the web address that's before a domain and you've quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. As an example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for students in addition to the primary school website. If you use subdomains instead of subfolders, it's going to 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 websites separate from each other.
