Why NVIDIA FLARE?

Research & Productivity

Provides user-friendly APIs for client and server programming. Use the Simulator and POC modes to quickly simulate a federated learning application.

Framework Agnostic

Designed as a federated computing platform agnostic to frameworks, workloads, datasets, and domains. Federated learning apps are built on this foundation.

Open Architecture Design

Flexible open architecture allows for extensive customization, with a modular design that ensures each layer can be easily pluggable with custom components.

Security & Privacy

Prioritizes security with secure provisioning, event-based security plugins, authorization control, data filtering, audit logs, and advanced privacy-preserving algorithms.

3rd Party Integration

Enables a seamless integration with external 3rd-party systems with the FlareAgent to receive tasks and submit results to the NVIDIA FLARE server.

Cloud Deployment

Supports cross-cloud deployment with various management tools. Designed for robust, production-scale deployment in real-world federated learning scenarios.

What is Federated Learning?

Federated Learning is a distributed learning paradigm where training occurs across multiple clients, each with their own local datasets. This enables the creation of common robust models without sharing sensitive local data, helping solve issues of data privacy and security.
