Answer 2

It all depends on the volume of the xml itself. If they are small and fit into memory, then everything is very simple - through ObjectMapper and jackson. Just this method is well suited for POJO classes with annotations.
If you write your own service - abandon XML, go to JSON!
Well, if you accidentally need to parse Wikipedia back and forth, you will have to mess around with StAX / SAX a little. Then we read the parser. We write the pieces through the same jackson, for example.

Actually, it's better to forget about XML , and use json/json-schema/avro/protobuf/grpc/kryo, but it all depends on the task. You can't get away from XML if you need to communicate with a harsh furry enterprise - I sympathize, and if it's SOAP, then look towards Apache CXF! I sympathize again!
Depending on the task, you can use props from spring and/or even apache camel.
In general, announce the problem in more detail, and the answer will be more specific.
