Syft Logo

Data Science on data you are not allowed to see

PySyft enables a new way to do data science, where you can use non-public information, without seeing nor obtaining a copy of the data itself. All you need is to connect to a Datasite!

Datasites are like websites, but for data. Designed with the principles of structured transparency, they enable data owners to control how their data is protected and data scientists to use data without obtaining a copy.

PySyft supports any statistical analysis or machine learning, offering support for directly running Python code - even using third-party Python libraries.

Supported on:

✅ Linux ✅ macOS ✅ Windows ✅ Docker ✅ Kubernetes

Quickstart

Try out your first query against a live demo Datasite!

Install Client

pip install -U "syft[data_science]"

More instructions are available here.

Launch Server

Launch a development server directly in your Jupyter Notebook:

import syft as sy

sy.requires(">=0.9.2,<0.9.3")

server = sy.orchestra.launch(
    name="my-datasite",
    port=8080,
    create_producer=True,
    n_consumers=1,
    dev_mode=False,
    reset=True, # resets database
)

or from the command line:

$ syft launch --name=my-datasite --port=8080 --reset=True

Starting syft-datasite server on 0.0.0.0:8080

Datasite servers can be deployed as a single container using Docker or directly in Kubernetes. Check out our deployment guide.

Launch Client

Main way to use a Datasite is via our Syft client, in a Jupyter Notebook. Check out our PySyft client guide:

import syft as sy

sy.requires(">=0.9.2,<0.9.3")

datasite_client = sy.login(
    port=8080,
    email="info@openmined.org",
    password="changethis"
)

Why use PySyft?

In a variety of domains across society, data owners have valid concerns about the risks associated with sharing their data, such as legal risks, privacy invasion (misuing the data), or intellectual property (copying and redistributing it).

Datasites enable data scientists to answer questions without even seeing or acquiring a copy of the data, within the data owners's definition of acceptable use. We call this process Remote Data Science.

This means that the current risks of sharing information with someone will no longer prevent the vast benefits such as innovation, insights and scientific discovery. With each Datasite, data owners are able to enable 1000x more accesible data in each scientific field and lead, together with data scientists, breakthrough innovation.
