Lossy compression

Lossy compression

Lossy compression is a compression data technique that compressed the data by reducing the size and removing some data of the file. Once compressed the file has permanently deleted the data and that can’t be retrieve again, because of this reason it is also known as irreversible compression.

The effect of lossy compression isn’t always immediately noticeable, in fact in most cases they are not noticeable at all, you might spot few differences in the original and compressed, when look closely. Lossy compression makes it easier to upload, download and transfer data.
