Billion of events make large databases. And with large databases come large headaches.
When you have many records that only differ for a few fields, you need a compression method that could make the difference. Literally.
So goodbye GZIP and welcome VCDIFF!
We'll see how to efficiently compress any kind of data taking advantage of their similarity while being completely format agnostic. You'll see how powerful the VCDIFF compression is with some live coding and some live drawing where we'll try to beat even the JPEG compression.
