XML and JSON are popular standards for capturing and describing structured and unstructured data. JSON is well suited for storing or transmitting data efficiently with very little overhead, whereas XML offers a rich environment that includes entities and a mechanism to support metadata and extensibility. Both are widely used data interchange formats, but they have different syntaxes and structures.
Support for XML to JSON conversion in XMLSpy allows users to easily switch between the two formats based on their needs or the requirements of their projects.
In addition to powerful conversion utilities, XMLSpy includes a JSON and XML editors, as well as support for working with XPath, XSLT, and XQuery alongside both technologies.
You can convert a single file or perform a mass conversion on a large number of XML files instantly. Simply right-click the desired folder in the Project window.
Numerous options make it easy to customize how you want the transformation to proceed.
When more complex or recurrent data conversion is required - or if you need to convert JSON and XML between other data formats - MapForce is the tool for the job. An any-to-any data integration tool, MapForce supports myriad data formats as inputs and outputs for powerful data transformations. You can even combine multiple source or target types, for instance, to map XML and database data to a JSON output file.
Simply drag and drop to define your data conversion rules and choose from a comprehensive library of data processing functions and filters. Or, build your own with the visual function builder.
For the ultimate flexiblity, MapForce supports any-to-many data mapping as well as chained mappings.
Once your mapping is defined, you can view and save the output immediately, or automate the conversion via the high-performance MapForce Server software.
XMLSpy and MapForce are both well-suited for data conversion in different scenarios. Now, you can get both of these tools in the specially-priced Altova MissionKit. When you download the MissionKit, you'll get both XMLSpy AND MapForce - plus 5 other development software products - for less than the price of two.
