Aggregaatti

Aggregaatti is a term used in engineering and data disciplines to denote an object that gathers multiple inputs and combines them into a single output. The word is a cognate of aggregate and is used in several languages to describe devices or concepts that perform pooling, merging, or consolidation.

In computing and information systems, an aggregaatti is typically a software module or hardware component that collects data from diverse sources, normalizes values, and provides a unified feed, interface, or dataset. Such components are common in data integration, telemetry, monitoring dashboards, and API gateways.

In the energy and machinery sector, the term is sometimes used for generator sets or portable power units that supply electricity, particularly in catalogs or among technicians who speak a language that borrows the word from Latin aggregare.

Because aggregaatti exists in multiple domains with different specifics, there is no single standard definition. The precise meaning depends on context, including whether the term refers to data aggregation, electrical generation, or mechanical consolidation.
