The XML Infoset specification provides a vocabulary to refer to the constructs within an XML document, but does not provide any guidance on how to access this information. A variety of APIs for accessing XML have been developed and used, and some have been standardized. Existing APIs for XML processing tend to fall into these categories:
Streaming API for XML (StAX) is an application programming interface to read and write XML documents, originating from the Java programming language community. Traditionally, XML APIs are either: DOM based - the entire document is read into memory as a tree structure for random access by the calling application
XML and JSON web APIs saw widespread commercial adoption beginning in 2000 and continuing as of 2021. The web API is now the most common meaning of the term API. [2] The Semantic Web proposed by Tim Berners-Lee in 2001 included "semantic APIs" that recast the API as an open, distributed data interface rather than a software behavior interface. [18]
The event-driven model of SAX is useful for XML parsing, but it does have certain drawbacks. Virtually any kind of XML validation requires access to the document in full. . The most trivial example is that an attribute declared in the DTD to be of type IDREF, requires that there be only one element in the document that uses the same value for an ID attribu
An example of a popular web API is the Astronomy Picture of the Day API operated by the American space agency NASA. It is a server-side API used to retrieve photographs of space or other images of interest to astronomers, and metadata about the images. According to the API documentation, [15] the API has one endpoint:
the Simple API for XML parsing interface or SAX interface; the Streaming API for XML or StAX interface (part of JDK 6; separate jar available for JDK 5) In addition to the parsing interfaces, the API provides an XSLT interface to provide data and structural transformations on an XML document.
The Java API for XML Messaging (JAXM) enables developers to use XML messaging using the Java platform. Developers can create and send XML messages over the internet using the JAXM API. [1] The following figure presents a conceptual relationship between JAXM and other architectural elements required in web-based, business-to-business messaging.
XML is `shredded` into a series of Tables based on a Schema [5] XML is stored into a native XML Type as defined by ISO Standard 9075-14 [6] RDBMS that support the ISO XML Type are: IBM DB2 (pureXML [7]) Microsoft SQL Server [8] Oracle Database [9] PostgreSQL [10] Typically an XML-enabled database is best suited where the majority of data are ...
