It frees up data so that it's available to use by anyone or any system.

Once your platform/system serves up it's data in XML format any other propietary system can use that data. Great for moving data from webserver, to desktop to mobile to anywhere. Any system can parse and understand XML.

It's gives our systems a common language to communicate in.
