What is XML-RPC and why we use it?
XML-RPC is created by Dave winer in 1998. It is XML based protocol, used to transmit information between computer systems through network. RPC stands for remove procedure call and it uses XML to encode the calls. To transmit information it uses HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) request. RPC gives developers a mechanism for defining interfaces that can be called over a network.
By using XML-RPC two or more computers running different operating systems and programs written in different languages to share processing and informations. For example, an Odoo application could talk with a PHP program which in turn talks with Python application that talks with ASP, and so on.
