m Changed wikilink REST to point to Representational State Transfer

An interesting question is how POX relates to [[XML Schema]]. On the one hand, POX is completely compatible with XML Schema. However, many POX users eschew XML Schema to avoid the poor or inconsistent quality of XML Schema-to-Java tools.
 
POX is different from [[Representational State Transfer|REST]] in that REST refers to a style for communication protocols, while POX only refers to an information format style.
 
The primary competitors to POX are syntax standards such as [[YAML]], and [[JSON]]-derivatives that don't utilize XML, in addition to structured protocols like [[SOAP]].
