Line 12: ==Data binding in general== One of XML data binding's strengths is the ability to [[serialization\|un/serialize]] objects across programs, languages, and platforms. You can dump a time series of structured objects from a datalogger written in [[C (programming language)]] on an embedded processor, bring it across the network to process in [[Perl]] and finally visualize in [[~~Mathematica~~Octave]]. The structure and the data remain consistent and coherent throughout the journey, and no custom formats or parsing is required. This is not unique to XML. [[YAML]], for example, is emerging as a powerful data binding alternative to XML. [[JSON]] (which can be regarded as a subset of YAML) is often suitable for lightweight or restricted applications. ==External links==
