Abstract
The FABRIC infrastructure is a distributed set of equipment at network collocation spaces, national labs and campuses. Each of the 29 FABRIC sites has large amounts of compute and storage, interconnected by high speed or dedicated optical links. It also connects to specialized testbeds (5G/IoT PAWR, NSF Clouds), the Internet and high-performance computing facilities to create a rich environment for a wide variety of experimental activities.
FABRIC Across Borders (FAB) extends the network to 4 additional nodes in Asia and Europe.
