XML content platforms enable content agility by allowing content to be loaded and processed in different ways without worrying about structure, and then leveraged across multiple channels. They provide multi-grained access to content, facilitate reuse of content for different purposes, and are designed for flexible delivery of content to various devices. Examples include the US Army using one to provide up-to-date battlefield information to soldiers, and a university press using one to deliver digital editions of books across different platforms.
