Throttle Actuators alternate names?

I pulled up service records at the BMW dealership that I purchased my car from and saw that under warranty, this was replaced back in 2015:

EDR ACTUATOR (Motor-driven throttle valve control) WITH OPERATING SYSTEM, M-Models Permanent Failure

Does this mean my throttle actuators were replaced? Seems like the same terminology but I've never seen it referred to as "EDR Actuator".

Description sounds like a throttle actuator

EDR I'd imagine is a German acronym for whatever they call the actuators. Like PDK is Porsche Doppelkupplung
