POX (Plain Old XML)

POX (Plain Old XML) is a type of XML (Extensible Markup Language) that is less complex compared to other types of languages. It is commonly used in simple protocols, sometimes in combination with other languages. On the other hand, complex XML protocols are typically employed for web services.

Small and medium-sized enterprises can utilize the POX language in various ways. XML is a standard that allows marking parts of a document with descriptive tags, enabling data to be transferred, translated, and understood using XML-based software. It is a simple way to present content or information. For instance, product information in XML language can be published in different formats, such as a webpage, a catalog, a PDF file, etc.
