1. A method, comprising:
- building a dictionary between an exporter and a collector by encoding a first data record of a flow according to a dictionary template and exporting the first data record to the collector via a network communication;
compressing a second data record of the flow using the dictionary, wherein the compressing comprises encoding the second data record according to an encoding template; and
exporting the second data record to the collector to be decompressed using the dictionary.

Abstract
A an example method includes building a dictionary between an exporter and a collector by encoding a first data record of a flow according to a dictionary template and exporting the first data record to the collector via a network communication. The method can also include compressing a second data record of the flow using the dictionary, where the compressing comprises encoding the second data record according to an encoding template; and exporting the second data record to the collector to be decompressed using the dictionary.
