our portal maintains stores huge set of images in 4 folders

  1. Projects
  2. Campaigns
  3. Films
  4. Standard-images

We store the image path in a table and it's source in the aforementioned folders. What is the best practice for image compression?

If your images are in PNG format or a similar compressed format, you won't easily be able to compress them further.

The best solution for this kind of thing to run an image server that's capable of serving different size images, try looking at Thumbor

Thumbor has a bunch of neat things it can do to reduce the size of images.

  • so i need to compress the files manually right !! or is there any auto process – Arun Kumar Jul 10 '15 at 08:49
  • Thumbor is a piece of software that runs on a server. You would have to install and configure it. If you are looking for an instant solution to a problem, I'm not sure there is one. If you're looking for best practices, I don't see a problem with what you're doing. – NibblyPig Jul 10 '15 at 08:50
