SQL:2003 is the fifth revision of the SQL database query language.

Introduced XML-related features, window functions, standardized sequences and columns with auto-generated values (including identity-columns).

The SQL standard is not freely available. SQL:2003 may be purchased from ISO or ANSI. A late draft is available as a zip archive from Whitemarsh Information Systems Corporation. The zip archive contains a number of PDF files that define the parts of the SQL:2003 specification.
