[[wikipedia:zstd]], zstandard ([[2015]], [[Yann Collet]]) is a lossless data compression algorithm developed by Yann Collet at [[Facebook]] released in 2016.
 
* Man page: https://www.manpagez.com/man/1/zstd/
 
* Installation: <code>[[ apt install zstd]]</code>
 
  
Characteristics:
 
* Parallel ([[multi-threaded]]) implementations of both [[compression]] and [[decompression]].
 
  
* Available in [[MongoDB]] since [[MongoDB 4.2]] (2019)
 
  
== Examples ==
+
* Parallel ([[multi-threaded]]) implementations of both compression and decompression.
* Compress a file:
 
** <code>zstd filename_to_compress</code>
 
 
 
* Compress a file and delete original file after compression:
 
** <code>zstd --rm filename_to_compress</code>
 
 
 
* Decompress a file:
 
** <code>[[unzstd]]  filename_to_decompress</code>
