bvolpato opened a new issue, #25340: URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/25340
### What would you like to happen? Is it possible to provide a comprehensive [Bill of Materials/BOM](https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html#bill-of-materials-bom-poms) with Beam? Beam / IOs contain many dependencies, which often conflict with other dependencies on the same project. Beam provides [beam-sdks-java-bom](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.beam/beam-sdks-java-bom) which is very helpful, but it can be prescriptive on many other dependencies. For example, every time that we update our reference to a version of Beam, we have to check [BeamModulePlugin.groovy](https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/buildSrc/src/main/groovy/org/apache/beam/gradle/BeamModulePlugin.groovy) so we can compare/match with our versions. The most notable one / source of issues is when `google_cloud_platform_libraries_bom` doesn't match - so I'm wondering if there's a way to provide a more comprehensive BOM so it becomes easier to stay up to date with Beam releases. ### Issue Priority Priority: 2 (default / most feature requests should be filed as P2) ### Issue Components - [ ] Component: Python SDK - [X] Component: Java SDK - [ ] Component: Go SDK - [ ] Component: Typescript SDK - [ ] Component: IO connector - [ ] Component: Beam examples - [ ] Component: Beam playground - [ ] Component: Beam katas - [ ] Component: Website - [ ] Component: Spark Runner - [ ] Component: Flink Runner - [ ] Component: Samza Runner - [ ] Component: Twister2 Runner - [ ] Component: Hazelcast Jet Runner - [ ] Component: Google Cloud Dataflow Runner -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
