The Measurement Data Service (MDS) Data Store collects and publishes test results and metadata.

Metadata includes input parameters, output parameters, and system information. The MDS Data Store stores test data in a structured format for easy access and long-term tracking.

You can use the MDS API for Python or LabVIEW to query historical data.

The MDS Data Store integrates with NI Nigel™ AI, an AI assistant that uses natural language to query historical test results. Using the data from the MDS Data Store, Nigel can help teams to spot trends, review past performance, and make informed decisions without writing complex queries.
