The core unified data dictionary standardizing entity models, shipment states, and event schemas across all services.
The Canonical Domain Model (CDM) is an enterprise architectural standard that establishes an unambiguous, service-independent data model for all business concepts (e.g. Company, FreightOrder, Waybill, Vehicle, SensorEvent, Invoice) across the TrustedTrucks platform.
Prevents data divergence across microservices, ensuring that database tables, Kafka Avro schemas, and GoQuorum smart contracts share identical variable definitions.
Formalized in Apache Avro schemas registered in the Schema Registry and TypeScript/JSDoc interface definitions.
The CDM is an internal platform domain model; it translates into external EDIFACT or UN/CEFACT formats at boundary gateways.
