What holds it all together

To access the Catena-X data space, a participant needs standardized connectivity methods to ensure interoperability, trust, and a compliant use of common interaction patterns.

That’s why our Enablement Services combine the aspects of identity management, data exchange via a connector, and access to compatible digital twins. Enablement Services must be deployed in a decentralized manner under the responsibility of each data space participant to ensure a trusted identity and sovereign data exchange.
