2. ZIP (file format) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_(file_format)

   A ZIP file may contain one or more files or directories that may have been compressed. The ZIP file format permits a number of compression algorithms, though DEFLATE is the most common. This format was originally created in 1989 and was first implemented in PKWARE, Inc. 's PKZIP utility, [2] as a replacement for the previous ARC compression ...

   Unix-like. RPM files consist of metadata concatenated with (usually) a cpio archive. Newer RPM systems also support other archives, as cpio is becoming obsolete. cpio is also used with initramfs. .shar. application/x-shar. Shell archive. Unix-like. A self-extracting archive that uses the Bourne shell (sh). .LBR.

4. Data compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

   Data compression. In information theory, data compression, source coding, [1] or bit-rate reduction is the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. [2] Any particular compression is either lossy or lossless. Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy.

5. Snappy (compression) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snappy_(compression)

   Snappy (previously known as Zippy) is a fast data compression and decompression library written in C++ by Google based on ideas from LZ77 and open-sourced in 2011. [3][4] It does not aim for maximum compression, or compatibility with any other compression library; instead, it aims for very high speeds and reasonable compression.

6. Smallpdf.com - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallpdf.com

   The idea came from the need for their families to compress and send large documents via email. [4] The initial version of the site featured a standalone PDF compression tool. [5] Since then, the online platform has introduced over 16 PDF tools to convert, compress and edit PDF documents. [6]

7. JPEG compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG

   JPEG. JPEG (/ ˈdʒeɪpɛɡ / JAY-peg, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group) [2] is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those images produced by digital photography. The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality.
