The current snapshot restore process requires users to install third-party tools that may not be pre-installed on their operating system, such as GNU Tar and LZ4. This introduces complexity and potential friction for users, as the process is not system-agnostic. Our goal is to streamline the snapshot restore process to ensure compatibility with Linux, Windows, and macOS without requiring additional installations.
Proposed Solution
Identify Cross-Platform Compatibility
Investigate which tar command and compression algorithms are natively supported across Linux, Windows, and macOS. Focus on tools and algorithms that come pre-installed or are widely available without additional setup.
For each compatible combination of tar command and compression algorithm:
Measure compression and decompression times.
Evaluate the compression ratio achieved.
Select the Best Option
Based on the benchmarks, choose the combination that offers the best balance of:
Ease of use (pre-installed on all platforms).
Performance (speed and efficiency).
Compression ratio (minimizing storage requirements).
Update Scripts and Documentation
Modify the snapshot restore scripts to use the selected tar and compression algorithm. Ensure the documentation clearly reflects the updated process and highlights its cross-platform compatibility.
