Abstract
Compression of data is facilitated by locating matches within the data to be compressed. A first technique is used to determine whether there is at least one matching string in the data to be compressed, and a second technique, different from the first technique, is used to determine whether there is at least one matching record in the data to be compressed. Based on there being at least one matching string in the data to be compressed, at least one indication of the at least one matching string is provided to an encoder to facilitate compression of the data. Further, based on there being at least one matching record in the data to be compressed, at least one indication of the at least one matching record is provided to the encoder to facilitate compression of the data. It is transparent to the encoder whether the first technique or the second technique is used to provide one or more matches.
