First Eclipse Tractus-X Community Days
On December 7 and 8, the international Catena-X developer community came together in person for the first time at ARENA2036: Over 100 participants from around 40 companies - some even from Japan - took the opportunity to try out practical tasks in workshops and network with like-minded people.
"Tractus-X" is the open source project for the Catena-X ecosystem. This is where the basic components are developed. Tractus-X is not only system-relevant for Catena-X: Manufacturing-X will also build on it.
This makes the community working on it all the more important. Seeing how many people are actually involved has brought everyone together and strengthened their resolve. Including us organizers: not only the Catena-X Consortium and the Catena-X Association, but also the Eclipse Foundation, the world's largest collection of open source projects.

What the participants experienced
The Community Days offered short keynote speeches with highly interesting technical insights, deep dives for a practical introduction to open source programming topics and IT tools and, above all, workshops in which participants were able to get active and try out Tractus-X for themselves. Stream 1 participants were able to set up a Minimum Tractus-X Dataspace (MXD) with three pre-configured EDCs, Managed Identiy Wallet, Keycloak and databases. Stream 2 used a design thinking format to give participants the opportunity to get to grips with the Supply Chain Act and familiarize themselves with the Traceability KIT. Stream 3 dealt with Digital Twins and the Asset Administration Shell and provided participants with Digital Twin Registries for practical exercises.
At the evening event on the first day, people talked shop, discussed until late into the night - and of course simply had fun.
