XML is an abbreviation for Extensible Markup Language. It defines a set of rules that is used for encoding documents in a human and machine-readable format. The design goals of XML emphasize simplicity, generality and usability across the Internet. It is a documented data format with strong support for different human languages. It is mostly used for the representation of uninformed data structures such as those used in web services.

Data quality is a valuation of data's suitability to serve its purpose in a given context. Different aspects of data quality include:


• Accuracy
• Completeness
• Update status
• Relevance
• Consistency across data sources
• Reliability
• Appropriate presentation

Keeping data quality needs going through the data in different intervals and scrubbing it. This involves informing it, normalizing it, and removing copies to generate a single view of the data, even if it is stored in multiple systems.
