Overview

The Data Exchange subset enables secure and efficient data sharing between participants in the Catena-X ecosystem. It includes components such as Data Providers, Data Consumers, and supporting services.

Involved Components

The following components are part of the Data Exchange subset:

• Data Provider: Manages data sharing capabilities for a participant.
• Data Consumer: Enables participants to request and consume data from providers.
• pgAdmin4: Provides database management functionality for underlying services.
