Updated this week

The Eclipse Dataspace Connector (EDC) Details displays details such IDs and source types.

This view allows you to manage its sub components:

Within this view you can also register the EDC with Cofinity-X Portal.

The EDC provides a framework, based on the Dataspace Protocol specification (DSP), for sovereign, inter-organizational data exchange. This framework contains modules for performing data queries, data exchange, policy enforcement, monitoring, and auditing. Specifically, it can be integrated with existing identity, data catalog, and transfer technologies to provide compliance, policy, and control capabilities across the network.

The EDC can be assembled as a connector that serves all the requirements of the Catena-X Dataspace and the participant (e.g., with an IT stack based on Kubernetes) at the same.
