## Notes

Bloomreach Experience Manager is a Java enterprise CMS from Bloomreach, Inc. It is offered as Bloomreach Cloud, a platform-as-a-service, and as on-premise deployments. The community edition is the Apache-2.0 licensed source of its tagged open source releases: the repository holds the git trees of those tags, and the documentation describes building a release from source with Maven. A project is generated from a Maven archetype and has a CMS UI for editors, and published content is exposed through a Content REST API on the delivery tier. Projects run all three web applications together through Maven's Cargo plugin.

## Worth knowing

Bloomreach publishes open source versions about two years after the enterprise release, so the newest community tag trails the enterprise product. Some enterprise plugins are closed source and require a standard or premium license.
