      Overview

      CI’s advanced compression feature allows you to easily convert images into formats that provide a high compression ratio, such as TPG and HEIF. This effectively reduces the transmission time, loading time, and the use of bandwidth and traffic.
      An image can be processed:
      Upon download
      Upon upload
      In cloud
      Feature
      Description
      TPG compression
      TPG is a Tencent-designed image format. Converting JPG, PNG, or WebP images into TPG greatly reduces the image sizes.
      HEIF compression
      If your images are used in iOS environments, you can convert them from JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, or other formats into HEIF, which offers an ultra-high compression ratio.
      Note:
      To use Image Advanced Compression, you need to enable it on the bucket configuration page. For more information, please see Image Advanced Compression.
      To use the TPG format, ensure that the environment where images are loaded supports TPG decoding. CI provides TPG decoder−integrated SDKs for iOS, Android, and Windows clients to facilitate quick integration with TPG.
      Currently, iOS 11 or later and Android P have native support for the HEIF format.
      For the pricing of Image Advanced Compression, please see Billing and Pricing.
