    Patent number: 8954400
    Abstract: An improved solution for managing structured data, and in particular generating compressed data based on the structured data. A schema that defines the structure of the data is used to generate a dictionary. The dictionary includes a set of dictionary entries, each configured to generate compressed data for a corresponding pattern defined by the schema. Additional compression can be implemented based on the structured data itself. The compressed data can be communicated between systems to reduce transmission time.
