How to configure Application Request Routing in IIS 7.0 for 2 applications running different iis servers using path based routing in iis arr - iis

I need path based routing in iis arr where i can create target group to assign different iis servers for web farm architecture. Which is provided by AWS Application Load Balancer.
For Example:
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-advanced-request-routing-for-aws-application-load-balancers/
I have to provide this kind of routing on my local machine using windows server IIS ARR(Application Request Routing)
Hey I need to configure this using target group which is provided by AWS ALB there is an option to set an instance in the target group for example:
I need this to be done on my local IIS machine using some third-party software.
I need something like this for my local IIS server.

As far as I know, if you want your ARR to achieve redirecting the request to the web farm according to special rule condition like http_cookie, http_host.
You could open the url rewrite rule in the IIS manamgent console and add some condition lik below image shows:

With lots of R&D, I found the answer that while crating multiple farms we can archive this
in my scenario I want to redirect my call to a specific IP but when I am using IP address the issue is due to IP so I create Farm for each IP and redirect my call to those farm due to that my issue of IP get solved so now I don't need to configure IP address to my web config file in my project.

Azure Front Door to Website on IIS VM Host

I've got an Azure Front Door that has been set up to link to 2 Windows VM's running IIS, I'm trying to add a Frontend Domain that I can then use to access websites on the VM's.
Azure Frontend Domain
Then I have the backend pool which links to the 2 servers.
Back End Pool
I then have a route to the web servers, which should (as far as I can tell) just forward the request onwards.
Routing Rule
Then I have my web servers which I have set up the bindings on for the website
Website Bindings
However whenever I try to browse to the website I just see the IIS landing page rather than the website I have setup. How do I get to my actual website?
The problem in the end was that the Certificate subject name validation had been enabled. To change you need to go to Front Door Designer then Settings.
if you get the IIS landing page it means the traffic is forwarded correctly from the AFD, your problem is likely with the local IIS setup like the default page or something like that.

Spreading web sites onto more servers

We have 200 customer facing web sites all on one server. They are all ASP.NET running in IIS. Is it possible to move some of them to another server WITHOUT changing the customer's URL? Any links explaining how to do this would be helpful.
If your sits are already registered to specific sub domains, you can simply re-point the names to the new server using dns.
If they are simply different sites under the same domain on IIS you can use your current IIS server to reverse proxy the new ones. Some info is given here
Lastly, you could consider using a load balancer such as netscaler, f5 or application request routing. You would again, point the domain name to this using DNS and the load balancer would send the requests to the correct server.

Came same DNS point to multiple backend systems based on path

I have a domain name registered. www.mydomain.com. I server some paid content on my website. All the requests on all ports for this domain point to tomcat server deployed in Azure Linux VM. I have a requirement to migrate this application to another PaaS platform without affecting existing consumers. I want to first ensure the existing users run out of their subscription next year and on renewal i can migrate them onto new system.(give them new link).
But for now all the new consumers coming in need to be pointed to new backend system with the same Domain name. www.mydomain.com.
Is it possible to divert traffic based on a path? eg
www.mydomain.com/oldcontent will point to azure vm while www.mydomain.com/newcontent points to new PaaS runtime.
You can't use .htaccess if Apache httpd isn't served as a proxy before tomcat. If you are looking for something similar to Apache's mod_rewrite, then try UrlRewriteFilter, with that you shall try URL rewriting, forwarding/redirection or URL masking silently.

How to convert multiple web sites hosted on IIS to Azure web sites

I currently have a VPS with another provider. On that VPS, I have IIS running with multiple app pools and web sites. I would like to get out of the "server management business", so it would seem that Azure Web Sites (Reserved) would be a great fit. I'm able to get the Azure Web Sites set up, including the custom domain piece. The problem that I can't seem to figure out is how to get the same URLs and behavior that I currently have on my VPS.
For example, I have URLs that look like this right now:
www.foo.com/bar
www.foo.com/baz
wildcard.foo.com/bla
I can't find a way to mimic that in Azure.
Things I've thought of/tried:
Go with one Azure Web Site and have separate virtual directories/app pools in Azure, but googling tells me that isn't supported.
Create 3 Azure Web Sites, one for each of the above. The problem there as I see it is I would need to change to use bar.foo.com, baz.foo.com, and bla.foo.com/wildcard (i.e. lose wildcard subdomain mapping and rework things to have a custom route at the end).
Maybe have one Azure Web Site with a rewrite URL? The problem I think I'd run into there is that it all runs in one app pool, so deploying one piece will affect all 3, and obviously a fault in one app would impact the other 2.
Has anyone else gone down this path and solved it? If the answer is spin up a virtual server, I'll probably just stay where I'm at.
Considering www.foo.com/bar, www.foo.com/baz and wildcard.foo.com/bla are 3 independent web applications that share a domain (foo.com):
Create a Windows Azure Website for each web application. You don't necessarily need to assign custom domain names to them.
Create another, separate website and assign to it the *.foo.com domain using an A record. Refer to Configuring a custom domain name for a Windows Azure web site for instructions. As documented, "With an A record, you map a domain (e.g., contoso.com or www.contoso.com) or a wildcard domain (e.g., *.contoso.com) to the single public IP address of a deployment within a Windows Azure web site. The main benefit of this approach over using CNAMEs is that you can map root domains (e.g., contoso.com) and wildcard domains (e.g., *.contoso.com), in addition to subdomains (e.g., www.contoso.com)."
In this "master" website, set up URL redirection (possibly with status code 307 Temporary Redirect) so that requests go to the appropriate applications.
Alternatively, to avoid the delay of the additional request caused by the redirection, set up the "master" website as a reverse proxy that transparently forwards the request to the "inner" web application and sends the response back to the user.
As yet another alternative, use a custom DNS service to do the routing at the DNS layer.
This way, each web application is independent and you solve the issue of routing requests to the appropriate application.

Get domain & subdomain of server by console application

Let's take one case that i hosted my web application on window server 2008 R2 and one exe (console application) running on that server.
I can access that web application by URI:
<subdomain>.<domain>.net , is there any way to get subdomain and domain info from EXE (C#) ?
Thanks in Advance.
The answer is... it depends.
If you only have one site hosted on your box then you can just connect to the local instance via either the IP Address the website on the machine resolves too, or by using http://localhost etc.
When you have a URL, the situation becomes more complicated. The machine could be hosting several websites - how do you know which one you want to connect to? In this instance, I would advise just storing the url you want to connect to in config.
However, it should be possible to list the all of the domains from IIS - you'll need to use WMI.
