Update Development Environment
Update your development environment before upgrading your brXM implementation project from v15 to v16.
Upgrade to Java 17
In Bloomreach Experience Manager 16.0, the Java version has been upgraded from Java 11 to Java 17, and therefore Java 17 is required in local development environments, CI environments, and server environments.

Update Maven Repository IDs
As of Bloomreach Experience Manager 16.0, all Bloomreach Maven repository IDs use the prefix bloomreach-maven2- instead of hippo-maven2-.
Update all Bloomreach Maven repository IDs accordingly in your local Maven settings (~/.m2/settings.xml), in your implementation projects' pom.xml files, and in your CI environments.
