I have our website on an Azure Web App plan at www.domain.com. This website is running an MVC 4 application and is working great. I have started to configure a blog on another azure website in my plan and would like it to be at the URL www.domain.com/blog instead of a blog.domain.com subdomain.
How do I accomplish this? Do I need to do some clever DNS settings? I'm unsure of the best technique that will also not screw around with the MVC website on the root.
You can set rules in your main www.domain.com IIS server to rewrite /blog requests to another domain-blog.azurewebsites.net Azure App Service.
Something like this:
<rule name="Rewrite to blog site" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^blog$" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="https://domain-blog.azurewebsites.net/{R:0}" />
</rule>
Take a look at this article https://tomssl.com/2015/06/15/create-your-own-free-reverse-proxy-with-azure-web-apps/
Another option is to deploy two site under the same web app, an create virtual directory to separate them. See details about virtual directory in this link https://stackoverflow.com/a/15122761/5463877
