Is it possible for Apache to authenticate users against a database kept

I'm using proxy_ajp to handle requests for some applications hosted by
Tomcat.  The problem with that is, anyone can access them.  We'd like to
have any requests for https://server.host.name/application1 for example,
to be authenticated against this database.

I don't know about any module directly "out of the box" in Apache's module collection itself. But it is certainly possible using an Apache/ mod_perl authentication module.
Look here for a first overview :

You may want to have a closer look at, for instance, Apache2::AuthCookieDBI.
