XML

XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a text format used to store and transport data. XML is a hierarchical structure containing user-defined tags and attributes allowing it to fit specific data needs. XML is both human-readable and machine-readable, which makes it usable in a variety of applications, including web development, software configuration, data interchange between applications, and more.

Fixed Width/Fixed Length

A fixed width (or fixed length) file is a text data file in which each field in a record is allocated a specific number of characters, regardless of the actual content length. This consistent column width ensures that data aligns in columns across rows, making the file appear like a table when viewed in a plain text editor. If a field's content does not fill the entire width, it's padded with spaces or other placeholder characters. Fixed width files are often used in legacy systems, mainframes, and financial data processing systems.
