| 33 | +## Application Architecture |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +### Application Architecture Overview |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +The **Business Partner KIT** at the Operating Company manages the master data of Catena-X participants, including Due Diligence information. Therefore the Due Diligence information is part of the so called Golden Record of a Catena-X participant. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +This information is provided by the **Data Providers** via the **Due Diligence KIT** app used by the company that has due diligence information to share with other Catena-X participants, especially OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers. |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +**Data Consumers** are normally the OEMs and Tier1 suppliers, that want to do a due diligence check on the suppliers in their global supply chain. They have access to limited due diligence information via the BPDM/Golden Record of a Catena-X participant. More due diligence relevant information can be consumed directly from the supplier (Data Providers) that are connected to the Catena-X data space. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +The Data Provider (supplier) determines which Data Consumer (OEM and Tier1) are allowed to see which due diligence information managed by their instance of the Due Diligence KIT application. |
| 46 | +A specific supplier in the supply chain can be Data Provider for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, as well as a Data Consumer from supplier further down in the supply chain. |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +The **EDC Control Planes** handles authentication and authorization between parties. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +The **EDC Data Planes** execute the actual data transfer after a successful authentication and authorization. |
