TAR

Consolidated Unix File Archive

The TAR file format is a widely used archival format for storing multiple files in a single container, commonly associated with Unix and Linux systems. It is supported by tools like GNU Tar, 7-Zip, and various file archivers, and is often combined with compression formats like GZIP or BZIP2. The format stores files sequentially with metadata such as permissions, timestamps, and ownership, and supports advanced features like symbolic links, hard links, and sparse file handling.

GZIP

Gnu Zipped File

GZIP is a widely used file format for data compression, primarily designed to reduce file size for storage or transmission. It is supported by numerous applications and tools, including command-line utilities like gzip and gunzip, as well as software like 7-Zip, WinRAR, and various programming libraries. The format uses the DEFLATE algorithm for compression, stores metadata like timestamps and original filenames, and can concatenate multiple compressed files into a single archive, though it does not support archiving multiple files natively without additional tools like tar.
