+The collection of global testbed services are deployed on a pair of computing clusters located at WINLAB's ORBIT facility in North Brunswick, NJ and Columbia University CS data center (CRF) in West Harlem in New York City, NY.

+These core services are supporting multiple [wiki:Architecture/Domains experimentation domains]. As is shown in Figure 1, each of the domains consists of the following components:
+ * [wiki:Hardware/Nodes#Nodes SDR nodes] (user devices and radio hardware), 
+ * edge cloud [wiki:Hardware/Compute servers] ("radio cloud")
+ * general purpose computing cloud [wiki:Hardware/Compute servers] ("core cloud")
+ * networking (both [wiki:Hardware/Optical optical] and [wiki:Hardware/Network electrical])
 
-Each of the domains consists of three types of hardware components:
- * SDR nodes (user devices and radio hardware), 
- * edge cloud servers (radio cloud)
- * general purpose computing cloud. 
+The core cloud for the large testbed domain (bed.cosmos-lab.org) is split across two locations in NYC: uptown CU CRF data center and downtown NYU data center at 32 AoA interconnected with the high-speed optical backbone. 
 
 In particular, COSMOS includes three types of radio nodes:
