Eclipse Tractus-X 25.06

EDC (Eclipse Dataspace Connector)

• Primarily technical preparations and minor upstream updates.
• No major new features introduced.

Portal

• Connector Management Role for Active Participants: Enables automated connector registration.
• Multi-Identity Clearing House Enablement: Portal now supports international identity verification.
• Authentication Configuration in Auto Setup: Supports custom authentication per company during setup.

SSI Authority & Schema Registry

• Authority Migration from BPN to DID: Aligns with EDC's strategic direction; simplifies onboarding by removing the complexity as it eliminates the necessity to contact BDRS to get a BPN to DID mapping as additional step.

Policy Hub

• Technical maintenance; no functional updates.

SSI Credential Issuer

• Improved Expiry Notifications: Logs now explicitly indicate which credential has expired.

TRACE-X

• Enhanced User Experience: Improved data relevance and visibility by hiding or relocating not important data of a certain part.
• Scalable Table Handling: Performance improvements for large-scale data filters and searches
• Wildcard Search with digitalTwinType: Boosts search efficiency and system scalability.
• IRS Order API Integration: Enables high-volume, performance-oriented job processing
• Secure BPDM Lookup via EDC: Secure and self-sovereign data access to BPDM

IRS

• API Enhancement – API Change POST /irs/order providing  AAS identifier as key:  By allowing AAS identifiers as input keys, the system eliminates the need for the Trace-X application to receive AAS shell to extract globalAssetIds which are used as input parameter for irs. This streamlines the API interaction, improving efficiency and reducing error-prone conversions.

Digital Twin Registry

• Multi-Instance Namespace Support: Now supports deployment of two DTRs in the same namespace (potential infra-side issues still possible)

PURIS

• Test Automation Improvements: Added Cypress test suite.
• UI Enhancements: Feedback added in applicaton; BPNL copy functionality.
• Stability & Compliance Fixes: Helm chart and CX-0002 as there have been a few issues

BPDM

• New Gate Sharing State Query Filters: The new functionality increases the transparency for a sharing company about the current processing status of a shared Business Partner data record. It allows to filter for specific processing states so that it facilitates e.g., improved error handling and data monitoring, especially in combination with the filter for date
• Cx-Member Renaming: Renaming certain aspects in the BPDM APIs using standardized terms promotes understandability and cross-data space consumption of the BPDM APIs.
• Multiple Headquarter Relations: The introduction of the first relationship between business partners going through the Golden Record process makes it transparent for the data space participants that two legal entity business partners in the BPDM data model are the same real-world legal entity with two legal headquarter registrations .
• Multiple supported API versions: Supporting multiple API versions allows seamless rollout of new features while maintaining backward compatibility, ensuring users can adopt updates at their own pace. This enhances stability, flexibility, and user trust in evolving systems.
• Harmonization of Identifier Types: The list of identifier types has been extended and is sufficient for the go-live of BPDM Sharing Members in 2025, covering the EU + X scope and resolving issues with the current identifier type list.

Tractus-X SDK

• SDK Library Available on PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/tractusx-sdk/
• EDC Integration: Facade for asset, policy & contract CRUD, catalog and negotiation handling.
• Digital Twin Registry Management: Via AAS service in Industry Module.
• Submodel Management: Local filesystem support, designed for future cloud extensibility (AWS/Azure).

Industry Core Hub

• One-Click Sharing: One click sharing functionality (like Sharepoint) for catalog parts available at Industry Core Hub Frontend.
  • The industry core hub backend will make sure that the Digital Twin Registry and the Assets at the EDC connector is available and will provide the Digital Twin will the information for the BPN you specified according to the Industry Core.
• Submodel Dispatcher: Provision of Submodels via the submodel-dispatcher, which basically behaves as a submodel server, administrating your data storage and making sure the data is accesible at all times.
• Digital Twin Creation Without Sharing: Creation of Digital Twins is able to be done without sharing using the twin-management api.
• Business Partner Administration: Now available in the frontend.
• Enhanced Visualization: Catalog part lists and details accessible via frontend
• Simple Partner Management functionality (with option of adding partner): Simple Catalog Part Creation Formular with JSON.
