Only the [[Java API for XML Processing]] is a required API in [[Enterprise Java Beans]] Specification 1.3.

A number of different [[Open Source | Open_source]] software packages implement these APIs:

* [[Xerces]] – One of the original and still (in 2002) most popular [[Simple API for XML|SAX]] and [[Document Object Model|DOM]] parser.

* [[Crimson XML]] – [[Simple API for XML|SAX]] and [[Document Object Model|DOM]] parser that was included in JDK 1.4; now deprecated.

* [[Xalan]] – [[XSLT]]/[[XPath]] implementation, included in JDK 1.4 and above as the default transformer (XSLT 1.0).

* [[Saxon_XSLT|Saxon]], alternative highly specification compliant [[XSLT]]/[[XPath]]/[[XQuery]] processor (supports both XSLT 1.0 and 2.0)

* [[Sparta XML]] – A small [[Simple API for XML|SAX]] and [[Document Object Model|DOM]] parser that also includes an [[XPath]] subset.

* Woodstox – An open source [[StAX]] and [[SAX]] (as of version 3.2) implementation.
