The Digital Twins are no longer administrated in a central registry. The implementation of two services, "Discovery Finder" and "BPN Discovery", ensure that Eclipse Data Space Connectors (EDC) can be found in the decentralized environment.
The Discovery Finder is responsible to find a matching BPN Discovery for a specific type.
The Discovery Finder is used to find an endpoint to a BPD Discovery for a certain type and at last to find an EDC.
-
Ensure that EDCs can be found.
-
Data sovereignty is given. The provider is responsible for his data.
-
All users and services are secured and can only access when authenticated and authorized.
-
Discovery Finder and BPN Discovery are "central" services (horizontal and vertical scalability included) and meant to help to connect companies. So it is integrated into the Catena-X network with all their services.

| Data Consumer | The data consumer uses the Discovery Finder to search for endpoints for BPN Discoveries for a specific type. | wants to find an Endpoint for a BPN Discovery to find a BPN |
| Data Provider | The data provider adds or deletes his endpoint at the Discovery Finder | wants that his EDC / Digital Twin can be found |
| Catena-X network | provides the environment and operates the services | to enable the companies to connect and exchange data |
