Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to compress data are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a data slicer to split a dataset into a plurality of blocks of data; a data processor to select a first compression technique for a first block of the plurality of blocks of data based on first characteristics of the first block; and select a second compression technique for a second block of the plurality of blocks of data based on second characteristics of the second block; a first compressor to compress the first block using the first compression technique to generate a first compressed block of data; a second compressor to compress the second block using the second compression technique to generate a second compressed block of data; and a header generator to generate a first header identifying the first compression technique and a second header identifying the second compression technique.
