Do you use subdomains instead of virtual directories?

Loading last updated info...

Using subdomains over directories has 2 main benefits:

  1. it is easier to host different sections of your website on different platforms, and
  2. in different geographic locations
  • myservice.com/ssw/
  • myservice.com/northwind /

❌ Figure: Bad Example - Virtual directories used to distinguish organizations

  • ssw.myservice.com/
  • northwind.myservice.com/
