Remembering the French Riviera through The Open Group Photo Contest

By The Open Group Conference Team

The Open Group Conference in Cannes was as unforgettable as the beautiful beaches of the French Riviera. For those of you who were unable to attend, conference attendees submitted a record number of 24 photos to the Cannes Photo Contest, ranging from pictures of the Gala Dinner to the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea!
