WordPress Multisite is an Advanced Installation of WordPress that enables you to manage a network of WordPress powered Websites all from one installation.
This feature is whats used by Automattic with WordPress Dot Com, and other large institutions like Harvard Blogs, and even some Managed WordPress Hosting Solutions.

One of the best features of WordPress Multisite is the ability to use Domain Mapping to use a unique Domain Name on the sub-sites that are in your network. This gives you the ability to potentially provide a Managed Hosting Service to your clients and receive recurring monthly revenue.
If you're already creating WordPress Websites for people and businesses that you also have a service contract with, this feature will simplify your management of the sites, all while increasing your earnings.
I always recommend learning and developing on a local development environment before you upload and setup on a production environment.
