Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. XML is much like HTML ,but XML was designed to describe data and HTML was designed to display data. Also XML is not a replacement of HTML.

In computing, Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. The W3C's XML 1.0 Specification and several other related specifications—all of them free open standards—define XML.
The design goals of XML emphasize simplicity, generality, and usability across the Internet. It is a textual data format with strong support via Unicode for different human languages. Although the design of XML focuses on documents, the language is widely used for the representation of arbitrary data structures[6] such as those used in web services.
Several schema systems exist to aid in the definition of XML-based languages, while programmers have developed many application programming interfaces (APIs) to aid the processing of XML data.

XML is the extensible markup language. It s used to store and transport the data. It is self descriptive language. It just has the information wrapped in the tag. The data is stored in simple text format in the XML. This provides a software- and hardware-independent way of storing, transporting, and sharing data.

The main use of XML is the interchange of data over the Internet.

I agree with pellekarlsson which posted above about XML. XML is short for "Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. XML is much like HTML, but XML was designed to describe data and HTML was designed to display data. Also XML is not a replacement of HTML." In layman's terms this explanation is exactly what XML encompasses.

XML stands for Extensible Markup Language. It is a text-based markup language derived from Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). XML tags identify the data and are used to store and organize the data, rather than specifying how to display it like HTML tags, which are used to display the data.
