Data Compression in .NET

[Stefan L]

Hi Everybody,

does anyone know if there is a good compression library available for
the .NET-Framework?

I want to compress a byte-Array (chunk from a file) for transmission
over the internet to a client.
On the client side I want to decompress the data and use it.

Any recommendations for this sort of problem?

TIA,
Stefan

We have a professional library which will allow you to do that, and
much more, very easily.

For your case, our library offers a CompressedStream object that works
as other .NET streams do, interchangeably. In some cases you can
obtain a noticeably higher level of compression than standard deflate
/ zip / zlib compression algorithms if you use our library's Deflate64
algorithm.
