I would recommend against any method that involved network I/O for Apache.

If you have large volumes of redirects that cannot be satisfied with a
few simple regular expressions and mod_rewrite the obvious way forward
is batch generated (from the DB) apache config files placed in a
directory and sourced by the main apache.conf.
