Subdocument

public class Subdocument : Properties, NSCopying

Subdocument is a nested document with its own set of named properties. In JSON terms it’s a nested JSON Map object. Like Document, Subdocument is mutable, so you can make changes in-place. The difference is that a Subdocument doesn’t have its own ID. It’s not a first-class entity in the database, it’s just a nested object within the document’s JSON. It can’t be saved individually; changes are persisted when you save its document.
