What Is UML (Unified Modeling Language)? UML is a general-purpose modeling language that provides a standard way to model a system with the help of structural and behavioral diagrams.

UML was originally developed by Grady Booch, Ivar Jacobson and James Rumbaugh at Rational Software in 1994 to help in software design. Later, UML was adopted OMG (Object Management Group) and ISO (International Organization for Standardization).
