You may combine mod_rewrite and mod_proxy in Apache and do all kinds of wunderful and strange URL mangling things:
E.g. for all URLs ending in .jsp stripping the /apps/ in the path or for all *.jpg, *.gif, *.html beginning with /modulename/ addinf /apps/ before or even generate http subrequests to 2 internal Web-App-Servers and 3 internal Web-Servers, listening on different, non-standard ports. Did I mention that mod_proxy is not only able to work as a reverse-proxy, but for example may cache even dynamic pages for a specific amount of time driving up performance?
