BPDM

Project Description

This repository is part of the overarching Eclipse Tractus-X project.

BPDM is an acronym for business partner data management. This project serves two main purposes:

1. Provide services for querying and sharing business partner information
2. Establish an infrastructure for realising the Golden Record process which turns business partner information from sharing members to Golden Records, that is cleaned and enriched business partner data uniquely identified by a business partner number (BPN)

The following sections give an overview of this repository's structure.

BPDM Applications

Heart of this project is the source code for the BPDM applications. Together, those applications provide the infrastucture for the Golden Record process. The BPDM solution contains the following applications:

• Pool: The single source of truth for Golden Records and BPNs
• Gate: Holds business partner data from sharing members and allows them to share the data to the golden record process
• Orchestrator: Facilitates business partner data between Gate, Pool and external cleaning services
• Cleaning Service Dummy: A dummy implementation of a cleaning service, responsible for processing business partner data and turning it one step closer to a Golden Record

Subfolders for BPDM applications are easily recognizable by the bpdm prefix.
