AltostratusPlacing F5 between application and database
What are the Pros and Cons of placing F5 between application and database ?
The WAF would not do the policy enforcement on SQL level, but the database security product. The database security would signal the result to the WAF and then the WAF would either allow the request to pass or not.

MVPHi Sushant,
while investigating a different issue, I came accross this manual:
Integrating ASM with Database Security Products
Might be a bit late.... but maybe it can still help you. Basically you integrate AWAF with a third party DB security product which would then examine the database queries.
