Traffic redirection with hosting services

    We have a domain (say, MySite.com) that we host our own website. However, in the process of outsourcing hosting services to other third-party like GoDady or Acquia, when our user hits www.MySite.com/newPages/, how do we show the pages that are hosted on Acquia or GoDaddy? However, if when the user hits www.MySite.com/currentPages/, it shows the pages that we currently host on our servers. Is this possible? If so, how do we go about accomplishing this traffic redirection? Many thanks in advance.

    Why don't you just move everything to the same server? Doing what you're asking is completely possible, but WHY?

    It is impossible to move everything we have on premise to the third-party hosting services. They do not support it. So, what are our options?

    Eh, no, move everything you have on external hosting to the in-house server - not the other way around. Why don't you host everything yourself? If need be, utilize a CDN?

    If you're able to do something like data.domain.com and simply put and A record in your domain to your external hosting service. Directing a domain.com/folder would be harder.
