Introduction

Keysight Technologies, Inc. Nemo Cloud provides a unique, end-to-end online service that connects
various Nemo products into one powerful, industry-leading solution enabling the remote access and
control of Keysight’s measurement and analytics solutions as well as efficient data sharing between
users.

Nemo Cloud online access and single sign-on provide real-time control and monitoring of
measurement product fleets as well as improved responsiveness and visibility of measurement
projects in the field. The centralized product and fleet control together with online inventory
management give customers the tools to get more out of their measurement resources and product
portfolio. Nemo Cloud services improve product lifecycle efficiency – directly accelerating the ROI for
measurement solution investments.

Nemo Cloud provides a one-stop-shop platform for centrally controlled network testing from
measurement session creation to final measurement reports (with Nemo Xynergy). It allows network
operators to remotely operate Nemo Outdoor, Nemo Invex and Nemo Invex II, Nemo Handy, Nemo
Autonomous Probe, and Nemo Walker Air test units and check their status. The location and status
of field units, including the driver’s contact details, are tracked in Nemo Cloud. Configuration settings
can be shared to and between all measurement units within the same project quickly and easily.
Nemo Cloud supports all devices and test protocols currently supported with Nemo tools.

A single user is able to remotely monitor and manage numerous Nemo measurement kits in the field,
thus eliminating the need for two technicians in a test vehicle. Measurement sessions are created and
scheduled in Nemo Cloud’s Projects page and they can be assigned for individual measurement units
or to groups of units. For locally controlled Nemo tools, Nemo Cloud provides file and configuration
sharing between measurement kits. This reduces preliminary work before the actual measurement
project in the field and eliminates human errors in local measurement kit configuration. Field unit
hardware configurations and test device details can be verified remotely to avoid failed drive tests
caused by malfunctioning hardware. In addition, hardware failures, incorrect scripts and other issues
can be spotted and corrective measures taken immediately instead of, for example, at the end of a
one-week test campaign. By reacting without delay, both time and money can be saved.

Nemo Cloud supports Nemo Outdoor, Nemo Invex and Nemo Invex II, Nemo Handy, Nemo
Autonomous Probe, Nemo Walker Air, Nemo Xynergy, and Nemo Analyze. The Nemo Cloud service
can be acquired either as a SaaS or an on-premises service. The SaaS version is provided as an all-
inclusive hosting service with full system administrator support. The on-premises service is installed
in a user-operated server hardware with full system administrator support from Keysight. The
scalability of the Nemo Cloud service varies from a few measurement units to massive environments
– one Nemo Cloud service installation is limited only by the number of Nemo measurement units.
This limit is set at delivery and the system monitors the number of devices simultaneously connected
to Nemo Cloud.

06 | Keysight | Nemo Cloud - Technical Overview

Nemo Cloud
Nemo Cloud is designed for the centralized remote management and control of Nemo
field measurement units. The location, status, and measurement results of all deployed
units can be displayed and monitored simultaneously on the screen with Nemo Cloud in
real time.

Monitoring

Figure 2. The Monitoring page offers you a centralized platform for viewing information regarding your measurement projects.

Nemo Cloud’s Monitoring page enables control of measurements in more detail by


allowing you to monitor measurement values and statistics, and measurement results
from Nemo field measurement units and projects in real time. You can easily filter which
projects to view – only your own projects, only active projects, or all projects. The
dynamic and highly visualized graphical user interface enables you to centrally view
over 600 key performance indicators (KPIs) with Nemo Outdoor units, and 200 KPIs
with Nemo Handy units, per device, all in real time. The system can be reconfigured
immediately when needed, thus minimizing the risk of erroneous measurements and
enabling you to focus on real-time processing instead of post-processing.
07 | Keysight | Nemo Cloud - Technical Overview

Figure 3. Nemo Cloud’s Summary section on measured KPIs during one measurement session offers a centralized view of any key
points of interest, allowing you to quickly focus on possible problem areas.

Viewing alerts and errors is centralized in Nemo Cloud. With one click you can see
all of the alerts and errors raised, enabling you to quickly and efficiently drill down to
the source of possible problems. With Nemo Cloud you can react to errors sent by
your measurement devices without delay, making your measurement projects more
cost-effective.

Figure 4. Centralized alarm management enables fast drilldown into possible problem areas.
08 | Keysight | Nemo Cloud - Technical Overview

Projects
Nemo Cloud enables you to assign various tasks for individual measurement units or
larger measurement fleets within projects. All automatic projects containing either
one measurement session or multiple measurement sessions appear on Nemo Cloud’s
Projects page. On the Projects page you are able to easily assign measurement units and
measurement files to configured measurement sessions.

Figure 5. The Projects page displays all the projects and project-related information in Nemo Cloud.

Figure 6. In the Sessions view on the Projects page you can create and edit measurement sessions easily and conveniently with the calendar-based
view.
09 | Keysight | Nemo Cloud - Technical Overview

Figure 7. The Projects page is a localized place to create projects and configure the measurement devices, sessions, email settings for alerts, and
data upload location for measurement sessions.

Resources
Nemo Cloud’s Resources page consists of two views: Units and Files. In the Units
view you are able to quickly and centrally view measurement units logged into Nemo
Cloud and see information about these units. The Files view displays the files found in
Nemo Cloud (scripts and measurement report files) and enables you to easily remove,
download, or upload files.

Figure 8. The Files view on the Resources page displays files in a clear list with detailed file information.
10 | Keysight | Nemo Cloud - Technical Overview

Scripts
On the Nemo Cloud’s script editor page you are able to view and edit existing scripts,
and create new scripts for Nemo Handy and Nemo Outdoor measurement units. Adding
script commands is simple and the order of script commands is easily altered after
adding commands.

Figure 9. Creating scripts with multiple parameters is simple with Nemo Cloud’s script editor.

Alerts
On the Nemo Cloud’s alert editor page you are able to create alerts and sets of alerts
for your projects. Alert rules can be defined to suit the purpose of the project, and both
creating alert sets and adding them to projects is easy. You can also select an alert set
among the already created sets.

Figure 10. With the alert editor in Nemo Cloud you can create sets of alerts customized for your measurements and projects.
