XML

XML is eXtensible Markup Language which has the ability to transmit structured data between trading partners. For some time now there has been a mad rush for businesses to move to XML based systems. XML, X12, and EDIFACT are merely different representations of data. What is important when you're evaluating an e-commerce solution is that the solution you choose allows you to transport data in any format, that it guarantees your data will be reliably, and securely represented in any data format, and that this will be done in an efficient and cost effective manner. The ultimate transformation of data upon receipt is an equally important feature that shouldn't be overlooked.

It is an e-commerce solution that provides for the reliable, secure transmission of any data in any format, allowing you to take advantage of today’s new technologies, such as XML, while providing for data transformation to and from formats that are compatible with your various backend applications and legacy systems.
