French term
Grilles
French to English
Tech/Engineering
Aux Etas-Unis, le transfert de la production des Grilles de CITY vers CITY a débuté et devrait se dérouler progressivement jusqu'à fin août.
This is a press release about the restructuring of a company following a merger. The company is a large one with many products & services and is involved in broadcast, networking, servers, routers, broadcast, video, etc.
Would "grid" be the best translation here? (I've also seen gate and lattice as translations for this term...) Or is there another tech term that corresponds to this better?
TIA!

grid
grid sounds good
but indeed more context would help
Internet traffic could grow eight times more than forecast over the next decade because of commercial adoption of Grid computing and related P2P applications, economist Robert Cohen said yesterday at Global Grid Forum.
Regional ?computational power grid? under development: Job management software.
City-to-city bandwidth. SHARCNET Computational Grid

ask!!
Any answer would be pure guesswork, which is not how we are supposed to operate! Try and ask the end customer, or find its web site, or a catalogue...
Peer comment(s):

Jean-Luc Dumont
: I agree with asking the client - but not with the tone. Who decided how "we" are supposed to "operate". Sounds a bit too categorical and superior-minded to me. Sometimes guess work can help. Maybe 10 good answers for one question. Asker knows context

All the answers proposed so far have indicated 4 on the "guess-to-certain" scale. I've no objection to guesses if the proposer admits that's what they are.

: AGree with David, disagree with JLDSF - the tone is not superior - he is right - we are not supposed to "guess"

This is purely speculation, based on the company's area of operations. Ask the client.
