This section describes the Decompressor and Compressor agents. These are processing agents that are available in batch workflow configurations.

The Decompressor agent receives compressed data batches in Gzip format, extracts them, and routes the decompressed data forward in the workflow. An empty or corrupt batch is handled by the agent according to your configuration.

The Compressor agent receives data batches, compresses the data to Gzip format and routes the compressed data forward in the workflow.
