Chapter 13. The Future > XML, XML, and more XML

XML, XML, and more XML

In the future, XML will also play a major role in Web application development. JSP pages are perfect for both XML page generation as well as integration into XML tools. This is mostly due to the close relationship JSP has with Java, as well as the fact that Java hosts a comprehensive set of XML tools and libraries. The large set of tools available for manipulating XML is key here, as these tools can also be used to manipulate XML pages that are written to be XML-compliant.

While it is probably not true that XML will eventually replace HTML, it is probably true that HTML will become fully XML-compliant. In addition, XML is playing an ever-increasing role in applications beyond the Web. From application integration, to configuration management, to standardization, XML will play an important role in the future of enterprise applications.
