andmebaasideks

Andmebaasideks is an Estonian translative form derived from the noun andmebaas (database) and its plural andmebaasid (databases). In technical or formal Estonian texts, andmebaasideks functions as a grammatical way to express role, state, or designation—roughly translating to “as databases” or “for use as databases.” It is not a standalone concept or entity, but a word-form used within sentences to indicate that something is intended to operate as databases or to be treated as databases.

The form is created by taking the plural base andmebaasid and adding the translative suffix -ks. This suffix marks a change of state or role, which is common in Estonian when describing how an object is used or what it is designated to become. In practice, andmebaasideks appears in documentation and design discussions to specify function or role within a system, rather than as a separate technical term.

Examples of usage in context might include sentences such as “See moodul on mõeldud andmebaasideks,” meaning “This module is intended to function as databases,” or “andmebaasideks määratud roll,” meaning “the role designated as databases.” The phrase is primarily found in Estonian-language technical writing and is often part of larger constructions about architecture, data modeling, or software interfaces.

Related terms include andmebaas (database) and andmebaasid (databases). The concept is linguistic rather than a distinct technology, representing how Estonian grammar expresses role and designation in technical descriptions.
