​

NEW! Compress a FASTQ file in ½ time with a little help from its BAM  

If you have both FASTQ and BAM files available and want to compress both - well, that's what Genozip Deep™ is for. But what if you only want to compress the FASTQs and not the BAMs?

 

With the new BAM-Assisted Compression of FASTQ method (patent pending), Genozip can now inspect the BAM ahead of compressing the related FASTQs, using the alignment data from the BAM to slash the compression time of the FASTQ in half, while also improving the compression ratio.  â€‹

New! Genozip Deep™ (patent pending)
Co-compression™ of FASTQ and BAM

Need to compress both FASTQ and BAM files? By co-compressing them together, Genozip Deep™ takes advantage of the information overlap between the FASTQ and BAM data to dramatically shrink the compressed file size. When uncompressing, the FASTQ and BAM files are recovered precisely.  â€‹
