A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Web. As an example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for college students on top of the main school website. If you are using subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific site, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the websites separate from one another.
