Hi folks:

I am planning to upgrade my site to drupal. My site is obviously a content site. Currently, paths are in two formats depending on the content types. For essays and Q/A, the path is usually like domain.com/a/67 -- something very easy to achieve with Drupal.

The second is the path for blogs. There're multiple blogs, for example News Analyses or Reflections. The path for blog article is under the subdomain blogs.domain.com and is dependent on the blog name, e.g. blogs.domain.com/reflections/128 or blogs.domain.com/news/132.

I have not been able to figure out how can I achieve this path without creating a multi-site setup since that becomes very tedious and difficult to manage.

Thanks.

Try using domain module http://drupal.org/project/domain .
or sub domain module
http://drupal.org/project/subdomain

you may have to set wildcard dns record for your domain to use above modules
