In the first week we are asked to get
familiar with the technologies that we will find in the future. These
technologies are relevant to anyone who is in this filed (don't have
to work in WSO2). Below I have provided what I went through the
first week with the references that they use.(Thank goes to Selvaratnam Uthaiyashankar for providing these materials for us)

just XML Schema would do.
