> Conceptual overview of domain configuration in IXO digital twin systems.

## Domain configuration model

Each digital entity domain is anchored by a Decentralized Identifier (DID) record and extended with controllers, services, resources, rights, and linked claims.

  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Services and resources" icon="database">
    Domains reference service endpoints and linked data resources required for operations.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Rights and claims" icon="scale-balanced">
    Accorded rights and verifiable claims define what can be done and what has been attested.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>
