A TAZ file is essentially a compressed archive created using the Unix-based Tar archiving utility, with compression applied through the compress program. The "tar" part of the filename stands for "tape archive," reflecting the utility's origins in backing up data to tape drives, while the "z" indicates that the archive has been compressed using the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) algorithm to reduce its size.
Unix .TAR file archive compressed with Gnu Zip (.GZIP) compression; uses a TAR archive to bundle the files together and Gzip compression to reduce the file size; commonly used on Unix and Linux systems; originally created as the shorthand version of the compound extension .TAR.GZ.
