Length of Schengen tourist visa?

Length of Schengen tourist visa? - Woman walking along wet sandy beach in windy day

I understood the length of Schengen tourist visa is kind of standard to be 90 days. Now I am wondering, if in the itinerary I submit with my application I specify some period of time that lasts less than that time span, is it possible that they would issue the visa on a shorter length? or is it like, always when you get it, no matter what, it will be 90 days?

Thank you!
