Open Group Standards

Open Group Standards are agreed-upon rules and guidelines created by The Open Group, an organization that promotes open, vendor-neutral IT standards. They ensure different software, hardware, and systems can work together smoothly, share information, and meet common requirements. These standards cover areas like enterprise architecture, security, and integration processes, helping organizations improve efficiency, security, and interoperability. Because they are open and developed collaboratively, they prevent vendor lock-in and foster innovation across the IT industry.
