Abstract
A method and system are disclosed. A first service engine among a plurality of service engines detects a traffic violation of a web application policy for an instantiation of a virtual service on the first service engine. The service engines maintain corresponding instances of a shared state of policy violations for the web application policy. In response to detecting the traffic violation, a first instance of the shared state on the first service engine is updated. The first service engine broadcasts the updated first instance of the shared state. Remaining service engines, which have instantiations of the virtual service, update their instances of the shared state in response to receiving the updated first instance. The instances of the shared state are aggregated to obtain an aggregated shared state. It is detected whether the aggregated shared state triggers an application policy rule for the web application policy.
