The Open Group is a global consortium that is focused on leading the development of open, vendor-neutral technology standards and certifications. It was established in 1996 following the merger of X/Open and the Open Software Foundation. The Open Group plays a significant role in the technology industry by providing vendor-neutral technology standards and certifications.
