The BC-CCM-ADK Archive Development Kit (ADK) is a set of tools and libraries that allow developers to create, manage, and access archive files. 
  
  How to use it:

  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an archive file, it is important to consider the size of the data being stored. If the data is too large, it may not fit into a single archive file. Additionally, when compressing data within an archive file, it is important to consider the type of compression algorithm being used as some algorithms may be more efficient than others.
