Description

Lets Python code compress and decompress data using the Snappy compression library. Snappy focuses on speed, which is useful for logs, caches, data pipelines, and storage formats where fast throughput matters.

Developers use it as a library, often through other data tools. Compression does not encrypt data, so protect sensitive content separately and validate data before decompressing from untrusted sources.
