The Google Cloud Libraries BOM is a Bill-of-Materials (BOM) that provides consistent versions of Google Cloud Java libraries and their core Google libraries (gRPC, Protobuf, etc.). Here is a code snippet showing how to use BOM in the <dependencyManagement> section. For details, please refer to Google Cloud: Using Cloud Client Libraries.

To use it in Maven, add the following to your POM:

 <dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.google.cloud</groupId>
      <artifactId>libraries-bom</artifactId>
      <version>26.45.0</version>
      <type>pom</type>
      <scope>import</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

When you use the Libraries BOM, you don't specify individual library versions and your application runs on a consistent set of the dependencies.

The content of the Libraries BOM consists of 2 categories:

• Google Cloud Java client libraries (Maven coordinates com.google.cloud:google-cloud-XXX, where XXX is a GCP service name) and
• Core Google dependency libraries, such as gRPC, Protobuf, and Guava.

This is the table of modules included in the latest libraries-bom release:

The google-cloud-bom dashboard provides client library consumers with easy access to dependency information pertaining to each client library that goes into the google-cloud-bom.

The dashboard shows the content of each version of the BOM which includes all the versions of the artifacts in it and their underlying google-cloud-shared-dependencies BOM version.

The dashboard also has an all versions page where user can easily search on any artifact or version to see which version of the google-cloud-bom it exists in -- this could be helpful in providing client library consumer advice on which version(s) of google-cloud-bom to import to address their needs.

Contributions to this library are always welcome and highly encouraged.
