TLDR
Diff Algorithms are the basis of a number of commonly used developer tools. Understanding the inner workings of diff algorithms is rarely necessary to use said tools. Message Delta Compression reduces the bandwidth required to transmit realtime messages by sending only the diff of a message. Ably programmatically implemented a diff algorithm across its distributed pub/sub messaging platform. It transfers only the set of changes to an old version of the data already available to a recipient as opposed to transferring all the new data. Binary format is usually space optimized and used in order to save bandwidth.via the TL;DR App
