Compression on every byte
The smallest lossless frame for the message. This mix leaves as 469 bytes. The same message sends that frame again.

Measured mix · October 2026
Spend less on egress and storage. Move more on the same link.
You store the first trip and send the second. This mix keeps 469 bytes instead of 31,334, and the next send is 150 bytes. At $0.09 per GB, the first trip saves $88.65 of a $90 terabyte and the second trip saves $89.57. The same 10 Mbps link carries 668.102 Mbps of the original text on the first trip and 2,088.933 Mbps on the second, 3.127 times the first trip.
The other side opens all 31,334 from the 469-byte first trip. The second trip is 150 bytes because that side already holds the first trip. The link is still 10 Mbps. The larger number is original text moving on it.
$88.65 savedStorage. Keep 469 bytes and open 31,334. First trip of a $90 terabyte at $0.09 per GB. A 10 Mbps line of these frames carries 668.102 Mbps of the original text.
$89.57 savedEgress. Send 150 bytes the next time. A 10 Mbps line of these frames carries 2,088.933 Mbps of the original text.
271.247 MB/sOriginal mixed text on a measured pair. The wire carried 0.796 MB/s. Every job in that run restored.
Bytes on the wire
Same 31,334-byte mix. The bar is the bytes that travel. The number sits beside the bar.
zstd-3, gzip-6, and lz4-1 were measured on these same bytes. Each tool sends that frame again. AhanaWire’s next frame is the short reference once the receiving site holds the chunks.
Traffic a 10 Mbps pipeline can carry
Link speed times the original bytes, divided by the next frame. Added traffic is that amount minus 10 Mbps.
| Shape | Frame | 10 Mbps pipeline | Added | 100 Mbps pipeline |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chat | 29 | 239.310 | 229.310 | 2,393.103 |
| Handoff | 2,172 → 46 | 472.174 | 462.174 | 4,721.739 |
| Logs | 12,800 → 29 | 4,413.793 | 4,403.793 | 44,137.931 |
| Mixed day | 15,668 → 46 | 3,406.087 | 3,396.087 | 34,060.870 |
| The mix | 31,334 → 150 | 2,088.933 | 2,078.933 | 20,889.333 |
The first frame of the mix is 469 bytes. A full 10 Mbps pipeline of those frames carries 668.102 Mbps and adds 658.102 Mbps. A repeated 16 MiB line is a 127-byte frame. A 10 Mbps pipeline of those frames carries 1,321,040.630 Mbps of that line.
Three versions
Speed over 10 Mbps
At 10 Mbps the frames match version 1. At 100 Mbps this mix is 3,192 bytes, 9.8164 to 1. One lost half of a protected frame still opens. A protected handoff is 174 bytes and opens as 2,172.
Cache on your disk
The first copy is the version 1 frame. Once that site holds the chunks, the next copy is the short frame: 29, 46, 29, and 46 on these four files.
How version 3.0 wires into your machine
Each machine runs one compress and one expand. They share a disk on that machine. The frame crosses the link you already have. AhanaAI issues the key once. The payload stays on your network.
- AhanaAI gives you one API key. You put that key on the edge.
- Your application sends the original to compress on port 19752.
- The first frame crosses the link you already run. Their expand on port 19754 opens it.
- Each machine keeps the chunks on its own disk.
- The next copy is the short frame, because their disk already holds the chunks.
Measured speed of the short frame
One pair, 16 clients, about 8 seconds, warm next frame. Every job restored. Original megabytes per second are the height of the bar.
| File | Jobs/s | Original | Wire | p99 |

| Chat, 29 bytes | 70,972.21 | 49.255 MB/s | 2.058 MB/s | 0.445 ms |

On that pair the mixed day moved at 2,169.976 Mbit/s of original text while the wire carried 6.368 Mbit/s. The short frame added 2,163.608 Mbit/s to the pipeline. Logs moved at 1,983.256 Mbit/s onto 4.496 Mbit/s.
Two further hosts restored the same 29, 46, 29, and 46 byte frames, every job. Second host: chat 21,926.04 jobs/s and 15.217 MB/s, logs 12,793.03 jobs/s and 163.751 MB/s. Third host: chat 14,007.81 jobs/s and 9.721 MB/s, logs 7,970.26 jobs/s and 102.019 MB/s.
Keep the frame. Open the original later.
469 bytes kept
Opens as 31,334 bytes. A terabyte of this shape is kept as 14.967 GB.
127 bytes kept
A repeated line of 1 MiB or 16 MiB opens as the full line. A terabyte of the 16 MiB line is kept as 7.569 MB.
108 bytes kept
Opens as 2,172 bytes. Logs of 12,800 bytes are kept as 85. Chat of 694 bytes is kept as 71.
The archive is the densified frame. Version 3 also keeps each chunk on a disk you run, so the next send is the short frame and that site opens the original while the chunks remain. At 1 MiB and at 16 MiB the 127-byte frame is smaller than zstd-3 (171 and 1,613), gzip-6 (3,152 and 48,890), and lz4-1 (4,205 and 66,119).
Where this mix saves
Illustrative egress at $0.09 per GB. A raw terabyte is $90. These shapes are the measured files.
Logs and alarms
$89.40 kept on the first copy, $89.80 on the next, per terabyte. Plants, utilities, energy, water, historians, facilities, operations-event text, fleet and logistics exceptions, retail and hospitality operations, and municipal operations. A 10 Mbps pipeline of the next log frame carries 4,413.793 Mbps.
Mixed days
$88.82, then $89.74 per terabyte. Shared services, multi-site operations, health, finance, insurance, and records text in this shape.
Handoffs
$85.52, then $88.09 per terabyte. Contact centers, agent platforms, case platforms, claims, care coordination, and matter work. The next copy keeps $7.13 more per terabyte than zstd-3 on this file.
Short turns and captions
$80.79, then $86.24 per terabyte. Captions, rundowns, schedules, and short operational chat. The next copy keeps $13.49 more per terabyte than zstd-3 on this file.
