XML Schema Design

Liemur’s XSD is an intensive hands-on three day course. It explains the XML Schema language syntax and how to use it to define XML grammars that are flexible, robust, reusable and easy to maintain. The underlying motivation for the course is the exploration of design patterns inherent in XML and XML Schema documents.

The course focuses on the XML Schema language and its constructs, covering XML Schema’s declarative and derivative components. It then proceeds to discuss how these components collaborate to form robust patterns of use.

The topics covered throughout the three days are consolidated through extensive morning review sessions, group discussions, and hands-on exercises. The incremental lab exercises illustrate the concepts presented by the instructor and provide the vital hands-on experience.
