Description

Hyperscan is a high-performance multiple regex matching library. It follows
the regular expression syntax of the commonly-used libpcre library, yet
functions as a standalone library with its own API written in C. Hyperscan
uses hybrid automata techniques to allow simultaneous matching of large
numbers (up to tens of thousands) of regular expressions, as well as
matching of regular expressions across streams of data.

Hyperscan is typically used in a DPI library stack.

Hyperscan began in 2008, and evolved from a commercial closed-source
product 2009-2015. First developed at Sensory Networks Incorporated, and
later acquired and released as open source software by Intel in October
2015.
