             Summary: Create a Maven BOM for Apache Ignite
                 Key: IGNITE-1812
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-1812
             Project: Ignite
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Raúl Kripalani
            Assignee: Raúl Kripalani
            Priority: Minor


In Maven, a [BOM|https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html#Importing_Dependencies] == "Bill of Materials". 

BOMs provide an improved, short and safe way for users to import modules without having to reference the Ignite version over and over again.

It allows the user to add all of Ignite's modules into their {{<dependencyManagement />}} section within a single dependency import. They are consequently able to reference modules without specifying the Ignite version:

{code}
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.ignite</groupId>
    <artifactId>ignite-indexing</artifactId>
</dependency>
{code}
