I have a domain name setup in GoDaddy. I am trying to setup a sub domain of that domain in Digital Ocean. I am testing if this is possible or not. How can i achieve this?

All you need to do is point your A-Record from your DNS host to the IP provisioned by DO. And then configure your Apache config (if your LAMP) to allow connections for your subdomain.domain.com!

Hope this helps!
