Barracuda Web App Firewall tech stack / backend infrastructure

Makes use of the following, not sure if its the primary way the firewall is implemented:

NGINX https://nginx.org/

Rules: Snort (Open Source Intrusion Prevention System) https://snort.org/

Seems to utilize mostly Ruby for its infrastructure. Snort rules appear to be called with fast-cgi via NGINX.
