FastInfoset.NET Features

• Ultra Compact - Enables you to reduce XML size more than by using the Binary XML encoding of .NET or by compressing the text XML encoding of .NET.
• The Fast Infoset Standard - Fast Infoset is a binary encoding of the W3C XML Information Set that has been standardized by the ISO and ITU.
• Widely Interoperable - FastInfoset.NET has passed all interoperability tests performed by fi-interop with other Java, C/C++ and C# implementations of Fast Infoset.
• Blends into .NET - You can switch from the system-provided text encoding to the Fast Infoset encoding with practically no changes in your code.
• No XML Schema Required - Encoding and decoding can be entirely schema-less, enabling you to decode FI documents of unknown structure.
• Roundtrips to Text - You can easily convert from the text encoding to the Fast Infoset encoding and back to the text encoding without losing information.
• Efficient with Binary Data - Quickly encodes binary data like images, videos and other opaque items in their native format without converting them to a text-based format.
• WCF Message Encoding - Includes a message encoding for WCF that does wonders by producing more compact messages than any system-provided encoding for WCF.
• Cross Platform - Available for .NET, .NET CF, Xamarin.iOS, Xamarin.Android, Xamarin.Mac, Windows Phone, Xbox, Silverlight, Mono and as PCL.
