Bloomreach Experience Manager V14.7.5 Release Notes
February 16, 2022
The new maintenance release of 14.7.5 is available for general use for our customers and partners. This release includes improvements in community and enterprise artifacts.
Note that no 14.7.4 version was released. We moved directly to 14.7.5 for internal release process reasons. Changes below are compared with the previously released 14.7.3 version.
We encourage all projects to update to the most recent regular releases. Using a tagged artifact that is not yet part of a release should only be done if there is a specific reason and only after testing in your specific project setup.
Update considerations
The following 3rd party dependencies have changed since the previous maintenance release. If your project directly uses any of these libraries, please validate compatability. For more information on changes in these libraries please see information from the invidual vendors.
