XML

XML

In computing, a simplified subset of SGML for defining languages for specific purposes or specific industries for use on the World Wide Web. XML is more powerful than HTML, because the formatting tags are user-defined, but less cumbersome than SGML. XML has been developed through the W3 Consortium, who published XML 1.0 in December 1997.

XML provides the last piece of technology required to develop truly portable applications. The Internet provides the global network, Java provides portable programs, and XML enables programmers to create portable data.

XML database management systems are used in B2B electronic commerce systems. Because they use documents and not tables, they can perform much faster than conventional relational database systems. Data is structured using common schemas, making it easier for business partners to exchange data without getting involved in the underlying database design.
