In computer networking, CIM-XML is a protocol for performing Web-based Enterprise Management operations on top of HTTP.

CIM-XML a part of the WBEM protocol family, and is standardised by the Distributed Management Task Force. It uses HTTP as its transport protocol, and inserts XML-CIM messages inside HTTP.

The terms XML-CIM and CIM-XML should not be confused. XML-CIM is an XML-serialisation of a CIM message.
