Why should you care about data compression? It can make data not only smaller but also may make operations run faster. In the time since z Enterprise Data Compression (zEDC) has been available the number of software products that take advantage of the zEDC support has increased dramatically, providing a variety of ways to capture value in your enterprise environment. Compression also provides a nice complement to encryption, which will be discussed. Are you interested in reducing your total disk consumption? Are you interested in reducing file transfer time? Then you should be interested in learning more about zEDC.-Anthony Sofia-IBM Corporation
