The Open Group Making Standards Work®
The Open Group works with customers and suppliers of technology products and services, and with consortia and other standards organizations to capture, clarify and integrate current and emerging requirements, establish standards and policies, and share best practices. Our standards ensure openness, interoperability, and consensus.
The TOGAF® Standard, a standard of The Open Group
The TOGAF® Standard, a standard of The Open Group, is a proven Enterprise Architecture methodology and framework used by the world’s leading organizations to improve business efficiency.
The standard is constantly evolving as a result of the work delivered by members of The Open Group Architecture Forum and TOGAF certification has been achieved by nearly 120,000 individuals worldwide.
The Portfolio of Digital Open Standards
While all standards of The Open Group® can and are adopted and used independently of one another, the greatest value for an organization can be derived when they are used in unison – the sum of the parts should be greater than the whole. ‘The Portfolio of Digital Open Standards’ is a set of principles describing how Digital Standards can be best used together to accelerate the adoption of Digital practices across an organization, facilitating sustainable, and enduring change.
Whether your organization is an established enterprise, looking for Digital Transformation, or an entrepreneurial start-up looking to exploit a digital model from day one. The Portfolio of Digital Open Standards provides thought-leading guidance, no matter what your entry point to competing in the digital economy is.
The Open Group Library
The Open Group Library offers a wide range of publications including standards, guides, webinars, white papers, and more. You can search by category and titles.
