Firstly, Faisal, I don't think that IDS/IPS would help you.

Detecting SQL injection with signatures alone, especially the relatively straight forward signatures used in most IDS and IPS systems is difficult. While some SQL injection attacks would be detected many others would not.

And secondly, to make the list of application firewalls complete, we at Breach Security also sell application firewalls (www.breach.com).
