An XML Schema describes an XML document. It contains declarations for the structure of elements and attributes and assigns datatypes. XML Schemas provide for XML document validation and serve as a contract for data exchange between trading partners, such as between a publisher and an aggregator. There are two common types of XML schemas; DTDs and XSDs.
