Product Overview

Data Compression enables you to handle large amounts of data more efficiently, by reducing the amount of time it takes to transfer large amounts of data across a network and reducing the space required to store data.

General Features

You can use Data Compression in conjunction with the WRAP File Enabler product to compress one or more native MCP-based files—along with their MCP file attributes—as byte stream data files, and send those files across the network more efficiently.

When the file reaches a destination MCP partition, you can use Data Compression in conjunction with the MCP unwrap feature to decompress and unwrap the files. The unwrapped files are in their native MCP format.

You can also store the compressed and wrapped files on systems running other operating systems.
