Let’s say I want to move one of my websites here, on Digital Ocean, excepting one subdomain which for now will stay at the current hosting provider (on a shared hosting plan, no dedicated IP). So:
http://mysite.com should point to a DO droplet
http://subdomain.mysite.com should point to the other hosting provider
Since the main domain will be configured here, how will I set up the subdomain?
Thanks!

If you point your domain to DO dns you should be able to add an ‘A’ record and pointed over to the other hosting.
If your server supports you can add “subdomain” in A record and then point it to your other server IP address. I am not sure but you can try this out.
