Barracuda Web Server
The Barracuda Web Server is a small embedded web server library. The embedded web server engine is optimized for compact, deeply embedded devices. When embedded in remote-monitoring and control-management applications, Barracuda Web Server manages secure HTTP connections for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication and Human-to-Machine (H2M) interfaces.
With C/C++ Server Pages (CSP) included, this fast, small web server delivers dynamic web applications, enabling live updating of secure data by authenticated connection.
Barracuda Web Server Features
Optimized for Small, Deeply Embedded Devices
The Barracuda Web Server C library can be embedded in small, remote-monitoring and control-management devices, such as sensor network arrays. Barracuda Web Server includes C Server Pages for development of small, dynamic web applications.
Compact and Secure
Barracuda Web Server offers authentication for completely secure remote device management.
Proven, Stable Technology
Barracuda Web Server has been ported and tested with many popular embedded operating systems, including INTEGRITY and µ-velOSity (Green Hills Software), VxWorks (Wind River), ThreadX/NetX (Express Logic), QNX (QNX Software Systems), Embedded Linux, Windows CE, embOS (SEGGER), SMX (Micro Digital), and MQX (Freescale), and can easily be ported to other operating systems as needed.
Full Support for Key Standards and Protocols
The Barracuda Web Server and its plug-ins support the following standards and RFCs:
SOAP JSON
JSON-RPC XML-RPC
RFC 1321 RFC 1864
RFC 1867 RFC 1928
RFC 1929 RFC 2109

RFC 3268 RFC 3629
RFC 3986 RFC 4346
RFC 4492 RFC 4918
Developing Server Based Applications
Despite its name, the Barracuda Web Server can act as an embeddable application server that is specifically designed to function as a framework for running server-based applications.
Developing server-based applications using the Barracuda Web Server is typically done in C/C++ or by using C Server Pages. C Server Pages make it possible to insert C or C++ code into HTML template files by using special tags. The technology is similar to other server-side technologies such as JSP, PHP, ASP, etc. The Barracuda Web Server software development kit (SDK) provides a number of host tools that compile and link CSP files. The tools function similarly to a compiler or cross-compiler, and convert the C Server Pages files to either C or C++ code and to data files. A special linker combines all the data files into one file, which is then embedded in your application. The produced C/C++ code is compiled using your standard C/C++ (cross) compiler and the code is then linked with your application.
The Barracuda Web Server is ideal for devices that cannot use the Barracuda Application Server because of limited memory. The Barracuda Web Server and its authenticator logic is roughly 200Kbytes and requires roughly 60Kbytes of RAM. We recommend that you use the Barracuda Application Server and the integrated Lua Server Pages plug-in unless you are working with extremely limited memory.
