Since the advent of differential privacy, a number of systems supporting differentially private data analyses have been implemented and deployed. This article tracks real-world deployments, production software packages, and research prototypes.

Production software packages

These software packages purport to be usable in production systems. They are split in two categories: those focused on answering statistical queries with differential privacy, and those focused on training machine learning models with differential privacy.
