CDN Brotli Intro
Publisher: Psychz Networks, July 20,2020Brotli
Brotli is a modern lossless compression algorithm based on the same foundations as gzip (LZ77 and Huffman encoding), but improves them with a static dictionary, larger matching windows, and extended context modeling for better compression ratios.
Psychz offers two additional types of functionalities that goes with this feature- Brotli Mimetypes and Brotli Exclusion
Brotli Mimetypes
The Mimetypes are data identifiers that identify the type of file incident on the server. With this feature, you can compress a specific type of file by its mimetype. When the mimetype is specified in the "Add Mimetype" field, all the files pertaining to that mimetype is compressed.
Brotli Exclusion
With this feature, the files can be excluded from compression. When you specify a file or folder location along with its Mimetype, the files will be excluded from compression.
