About GXFS-DE

GXFS-DE is the project name of an initiative funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, based on a decision by the German Parliament. It has been established to kickstart the development of Gaia-X Federation Services as specified in a joint community process. The resulting open-source code will be handed over into the governance of the Eclipse Foundation in 2023.

The eco Association of the Internet Industry, with its Head Office in Cologne, Germany, acts as a procurer to coordinate the specification work and to award the contractors for the implementation, based on an open EU-wide tender process.
