GridNode helps to data owners manage their data, being the place where data lives. It is part of the PyGrid Platform:

• PyGrid. A server based application used to manage/monitor/control and route grid Nodes/Workers remotely.
• GridNode. A server based application used to store and manage data access in a secure and private way.
• GridWorkers. Clientd based app that uses different Syft based libraries to perform federated learning (ex: syft.js, KotlinSyft, SwiftSyft).

Use the package manager pip to install GridNode

git clone https://github.com/OpenMined/GridNode
