Some of the benefits of using XML as your document format basis are:
- Simplicity
Information coded in XML is easy to read and understand, plus it can be processed easily by computers.
- Openness
XML is a W3C standard, endorsed by software industry market leaders.
- Extensibility
There is no fixed set of tags. New tags can be created as they are needed.
- Self-description
In traditional databases, data records require schemas set up by the database administrator. XML documents can be stored without such definitions, because they contain meta data in the form of tags and attributes.
XML Provides a basis for author identification and versioning at the element level. Any XML tag can possess an unlimited number of attributes such as author or version.
- Contains machine-readable context information
Tags, attributes and element structure provide context information that can be used to interpret the meaning of content, opening up new possibilities for highly efficient search engines, intelligent data mining, agents, etc.
- Separates content from presentation
- Supports multilingual documents and Unicode
This is important for the internationalization of applications.
- Facilitates the comparison and aggregation of data
The tree structure of XML documents allows documents to be compared and aggregated efficiently element by element.
- Can embed multiple data types
XML documents can contain any possible data type - from multimedia data (image, sound, video) to active components (Java applets, ActiveX).
- Can embed existing data
Mapping existing data structures like file systems or relational databases to XML is simple. XML supports multiple data formats and can cover all existing data structures and .
