* expandable: clean design with heavy use of interfaces as contracts makes integrating and expanding the code easy. No dependencies.
* efficient: the code is optimized for efficiency (trade-off between compression ratio and speed).

Unlike the most common lossless data compressors, Kanzi uses a variety of different compression algorithms and supports a wider range of compression ratios as a result. Most usual compressors do not take advantage of the many cores and threads available on modern CPUs (what a waste!). Kanzi is multithreaded by design and uses several threads by default to compress blocks concurrently. It is not compatible with standard compression formats. Kanzi is a lossless data compressor, not an archiver. It uses checksums (optional but recommended) to validate data integrity but does not have a mechanism for data recovery. It also lacks data deduplication across files.
