Stratgie – Asserting crisis, the software firm proposes 160 of its salaris in intercontrat to sign a work contract part time valid for hard 6 months. For CFDT, measurement does not allow of anything the conomies and hiding place another motivation.

In its letter D `information, CFDT D `Atos Origin Intgration ragit the dernire initiative taken by the direction in matire D `employment. The salaris in intercontrat for more than three weeks have had reu thus a mail inviting them to sign an endorsement commuting their work contract full-time to contract part time (4/5me).

By accepting the proposal of the direction, the salari S `engages on hard six months. The priode will be able however tre rduite in the event of mission. A passage in part time is translated ncessairement for the salaris by a rduction of wages. The direction D `Atos proposes to compensate for the lack partly to gain by a premium allowing D `to reach 90% of the rmunration.

Of the rductions wages to come according to CFDT

However, it offer is in ralit much less intressante and the threshold of 90% N `is not reached. Indeed, a passage to part time results in a reduction in the holiday bonus. The congs countries and the RTT, corrls at the time of prsence, galement are galement re-examined the fall.

the critre of relle rmunration N `is not single lment the critiqu by the trade union. In its mail adress with the salaris in intercontrat, it undertaken explains to set up this measurement in rponse difficults of the economic situation and with an aim of prserver employment.

CFDT S `ton that as such an objective, it undertaken opt for a measurement has which does not allow in fact qu `a conomy of 0,005% of the annual total wage bill. For the trade union, contrary this qu `advances the direction. A limitation of the wage packs 100.000 euros would have allowed on the other hand a vritable conomy (5 million D `euros).

Of the formation bnfique than of part time

« It measurement seems to us plutt intends to make intgrer with the salaris fact qu `they are a too important cot. And, in a deuxime time, prparer to accept &amp tomorrow; #187; crit CFDT.

In consquence of what, the trade-union organization invites the 160 salaris concerns rpondre ngativement the proposal which is made to them and to contact the reprsentants of the personnel.

CFDT regrets moreover that undertaken it N `does not have dcid D `to urge a dmarche of formation in order to maintain the employabilit on standby salaris of mission. The formation which is precisely in the middle of the agreement on.

Accord which is D `elsewhere. With dfaut of chmage partial, Atos Origin in any case seems to at least want to resort to work part time.

the BNF (Bibliothque national of France) could entrust Google the numrisation D `part of its inheritance. C `is this qu `affirms the Platform in its dition D `aujourd `today.

“; Our ngociations with Google could succeed D `here some mois”; , dclare Denis Bruckmann, director gnral assistant of the BNF to the daily newspaper.

LexisNexis dduplic its give to hold its fentre of safeguard

tude of case – Confronts an increase in volumes in give and the saturation of its robots of safeguard on tape, LexisNexis has dploy appliances of dduplication. First profit: the drastic rduction of the disk space utilis.

Division of the group anglo-nerlandais Reed Elsevier (31 500 salaris in the world), LexisNexis S `is spcialis in information and the legal dition (JurisClasseur and Litec in France), but also conomic information, the formations and the confrences. In the Hexagon, LexisNexis employs 600 people rparties out of three sites (Paris, Orlans and Toulouse).

Confronts as D `other companies a volumtric inflation of its give, LexisNexis sees its fentre of safeguard called into question. Jusqu `prsent, throughout the week, the safeguard of give TAIT made of manire incrmentale. Then Monday, a TAIT ralise (the bands are finally externalises auprs D `a third as the law Sarbanes-Oxley imposes it which is subjected undertaken it).

Of the dduplication before rplication to limit the consumption of band-width

« This tche TAIT carries out grce two bookshops Overland LTO-2, each one quipe of two readers. However because of the increase in volume give to record on the tapes, the files D `waiting taient frquemment encumber. By consquent, we N `tions more able to respect the fentre of safeguard, which thus could dborder over Tuesday » , explains David Boughanim, person in charge systmes and rseaux for LexisNexis.

For rpondre this problmatique, the group chooses a solution then combining safeguard on discs and, via two appliances of. The algorithms of dduplication are appliqus on a premire bay, with an average compression ratio of 50%.

the second bay (with dduplication activates), connects via a rseau gigabit, east exploits to carry out asynchronous rplication on a site of help of give dduplic. Give so much dj compresses, the requirements in band-width for the rplication remain modrs.

204 Go of give transport ramens 5 Go

« The rates of dduplication are trs variable and corrls with the types of give. For our Oracle bases, the profit D `space is intressant. With regard to give galement. We are thus passs of 204 Go only 5 Go. On the other hand, as regards for example the images waiters, the dduplication prsente less D `intrt. But as a whole, the profit east empty.
