Sample XSD Sample XML Simple Type

XML Schema is commonly known as XML Schema Definition (XSD). It is used to describe and validate the structure and content of XML data. XSD defines elements, attributes, data types, and supports namespaces. It serves a similar purpose to a database schema by describing the structure of XML documents. XSD specifies an XML document's shape, rules for data content, element semantics, valid data types and values, and data constraints.

 Shape, or structure, of an XML document


 Rules for data content
 Semantics such as what fields an element can contain, which sub elements it
can contain and how many items can be present
 Type and values that can be placed into each element or attribute
 Data constraints, called facets and include rules such as min and max length
