There are several different ways, but the easiest is mod_reqtimeout/mod_qos/mod_security. Check your install with "sudo apache2ctl -M", and there should be several legacy tutorials available (I'd ignore deprecated mod_antiloris.) Rate-limiting token-bucket firewall settings are a personal choice every team must decide upon (what traffic is a priority when choking bandwidth), and often requires tuning to get it right (must you allow mtu fragging for corporate users or have a more robust service etc.) These settings will also influence which events trip your fail2ban rule sets. Have a great day, =)
