The .tar filename was originally designed to be used as a TApe ARchiver to store entire file systems and files as single files on tape storage medium. It was designed by AT&T in 1979. Today, the format more commonly refers to an archive or collation of multiple files into a single file with the .tar filename extension. The format is an open source file archive format commonly associated with the UNIX tar command however other data compression tools are capable of effectively compressing and/or decompressing files saved with the .tar file format. Doing so typically adds the compression filename extension to the archive file for example .tar.bz2.

A Z file format is a compression files format that can compress a very large file into a smaller one. There are seven different types of compression that are supported, they are 7z to 7z, 7z to cab, 7z to Izh, 7z to tar, 7z to tar.qz, 7z to yz1, and 7z to zip. There is a default compression known as LZMA, that can compress a file at about 1MB/s and can decompresses the file at about 20MB/s. This file format will support the use of AES-256 encryption. Its MIME type is application/x-7z-compressed.
The tar format is a popular means of digital distribution of multiple files over the internet. It should not be confused with compression/decompression format as tar is merely a tool to collate multiple files together. Combined with other compression tools and formats such as bzip2 or gzip, a tar file can then be compressed or decompressed as needed.
