Outsource to India XML
Conversion and Tagging
The Internet has made it necessary
for documents to be easily retrieved and shared across platforms. This
is possible by converting them to XML.
XML stands for Extensible Markup Language , a specification developed
by the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium). XML is a system for defining,
validating, and sharing document formats.
India has a rich IT talent pool which
can be leveraged to cost-effectively outsource the conversion of your
legacy documents to XML.
XML scores over HTML
- XML enables applications that HTML
can't XML is a more versatile language than HTML (HyperText Markup
Language).
- HTML is quite limiting. It does not
offer very rich semantics to describe a document. XML, on the other
hand, allows web designers and developers to build individualized,
dynamic sites using complex data elements. It also enables them to
access information across databases and types of data without having
to rely on a search engine.
- XML is flexible: Create your own
tags and share them with other users.
- XML is scalable: Document
structures can be nested to any level of complexity.
- XML makes a document "well-formed"
- i.e, it is easy for a computer program to read, and ready for
network delivery.
- XML can be used across data types,
whether it is universal data (such as name and address) or
industry/company/user-specific data (such as price, manufacturer,
product, etc.)
- XML can be used across platforms:
it is a standardized, vendor independent system for presenting data
- XML can be validated, that is, it
must conform to a grammar or set of rules as presented in the
Document Type Declaration (DTD). Such documents are easier to use
and re-use than documents which do not have a structured format for
containing tags.
- HTML can be easily converted to
XML.
