== Additional characteristics for comparison ==
Hi, I' missing a key characteristic (at least, it's key to me).
Lacking a better name for it, we can refer to it as '''streaming'''. A data serialization format supporting streaming would mean that it supports a '''unlimited''' amount of '''items in one''' data '''stream'''.
For instance:
* [[CSV]] supports one item per line.
* [[Log file]]s support one item per line.
* [[YAML]] supports multiple "documents".
* [[Multipart/form-data]] supports many "parts" and even of different MIME types.
* [[JSON]] on the other hand, does not allow concatenation of multiple documents.
* The same goes for [[XML]], it demands only one root node (closed).
