+# Catalog Crawler as Control-Plane feature
+
+## Decision
+The catalog crawler implementation currently contained in the [`FederatedCatalog`](https://github.com/eclipse-edc/FederatedCatalog)
+will be moved into the [`Connector`](https://github.com/eclipse-edc/Connector) repository.
+
+## Rationale
+It has been observed that the EDC `Federated Catalog` - the EDC component that provides the catalog crawling feature,
+either as part of the control-plane or as a separate runtime - is lacking adoption. However, it is considered by the EDC
+committer group to be one of the most crucial components in dataspace interactions.
+
+While, for example and testing purposes, remotely retrieving catalogs from counterparties to read through contract offers
+may seem like a good pattern to follow, in the context of production dataspaces with thousands of participants, this
+approach could result in slowdowns in the data retrieval process and cause network overloads.
+
+Crawling and caching catalogs locally can also enable a set of features based on more refined search queries that could
+be executed repeatedly and quickly on the local dataset.
+
+We believe this feature is underused because the `Federated Catalog` exists as a separate repository, and there are
+currently no examples in which the crawling feature is embedded within a control-plane.
+
+## Approach
+
+All modules in the `FederatedCatalog` repository (including BOMs) will be moved into the `Connector` repository. The
+`FederatedCatalog` repository will then be archived.
+
+The catalog crawling feature will be enabled by default in the `controlplane-base-bom` module, with appropriate test
+coverage and a configuration setting that will allow the crawling feature to be disabled if needed.
