Abstract
A system and method for data compression using compression hardware is disclosed. According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises receiving a data set in a data stream. The data set includes a set of data descriptor fields. Using the set of data descriptor fields included in the data set, one or more tabular slices and an index are generated. The one or more tabular slices are compressed into a compressed data block by a data compression scheme using a hardware compressor. A compression data file is generated using the compressed data block and stored in a database.
