I have a static showcase website hosted on S3 and using CloudFront, and an online shop (Prestashop) and a blog (Wordpress), both hosted on OVH servers.
I want to make a hidden redirection on two subfolders of my static website so it acts like my 3 websites are on the same host, using the following pattern :
- mysite.com/ --> normal behaviour
- mysite.com/blog/ --> myblog.com/
- mysite.com/store/ --> mystore.com/
Of course, I need every request to be handled that way, eventually having something like that :
mysite.com/store/fr/1-myproduct.html
returns what
mystore.com/fr/1-myproduct.html
would have returned.
This seems really tricky, since I've found no real solution to my problem, and at this point I doubt it may even be possible to do such a thing. I considered using a proxy but wouldn't that be like using a sledgehammer to get rid of a fly ?
I have searched for any possible redirection and I was only able to find subdomain/domain redirections...
So my question would be "How can I do that ?" But right now I'm wondering "Can one do that ?"
P.S : It's my first post ever, I'm used to search for a long time before posting and I always end up finding a solution, except for now. Any suggestion is welcome.
I'll check about proxies since it's my last hope
Wait.

CloudFront is a reverse proxy.
Depending on how much flexibility you have with the other two sites, CloudFront can potentially take you where you want to go, combining multiple independent sites under one hostname.
This is done by creating additional origin servers for your distributions and then creating additional cache behaviors, with path patterns matching the additonal paths, such as /blog and /blog/* that send requests to the alternate origins.
There is, however, a catch. CloudFront can't remove the matched pattern, so mainsite.example.com/blog/hello-world, matching the pattern /blog/* will be forwarded to blog.example.com/blog/hello-world -- not to blog.example.com/hello-world.¹ This will require changes to the other sites in order to integrate them in this way.
Unless...
If you already have unique path patterns, no problem, but if the extra sites' content is in the root of each individual site, you see the issue, here. Not insurmoubtable, but still an issue.
Your only alternative will be a reverse proxy behind CloudFront to rewrite those paths and send the requests on to the alternate servers. Truly not a big deal either, since HAProxy, Nginx, and Varnish all offer such functionality and can handle a large number of proxied requests on surprisingly small hardware.
The recently (2017) released Lambda@Edge service allows you to rewrite paths on the fly, as requests are processed, if necessary.
But the bottom line is that the reason you have not found a real solution other than a proxy is that there is no alternative -- every path at a given hostname must be handled in one logical place -- one group of one or more identically-configured endpoints. In the case of CloudFront, the logical place is physically distributed globally.
¹ CloudFront, natively, can actually prepend onto the path before forwarding the request, so requests for mainsite.example.com/bar/fizz can be forwarded to foosite.example.com/foo/bar/fizz by setting the origin path to /foo when you configure the origin. But it can't remove path parts or otherwise modify the path without also using Lambda@Edge. In the scenario discussed above, you would leave the origin path blank when configuring the additional origin servers.
