datentechnischer

Datentechnischer is a composite adjective used in German to describe aspects related to data and its technical handling. It is formed from Daten (data) and technischer (technical) and functions as a qualifier for nouns that refer to the technology, processes, or infrastructure involved in data management.

In usage, datentechnischer describes fields, tasks, or objects where data is treated as a technical resource rather than a purely business or informational asset. Common contexts include information technology, data management, data architecture, and data processing workflows. The term often appears in phrases such as datentechnische Infrastruktur (data-technical infrastructure), datentechnische Anforderungen (data-technical requirements), or datentechnische Prozesse (data-technical processes).

Because it is a descriptive modifier rather than a fixed field name, datentechnischer should be interpreted from context. It can refer to aspects like data integration, data storage, data quality, data governance, metadata management, and data security when these aspects are treated in a technical or engineering sense. It is also used to distinguish data-centric technical concerns from purely organizational, business, or user-facing considerations.

In English, there is no standardized single-term equivalent for datentechnischer; translations depend on context and may render it as data-tech, data-technology-related, or data processing technology. The term is primarily a German-language descriptor used in technical documentation, IT discourse, and engineering contexts to signal data-centered technicality.
