Building Service Brokers in Go - [LOPUG Meetup]

The Go programming language is a great choice for building robust, production ready Service Brokers for Cloud Foundry. Alex will show you how to supercharge your service broker development using several open source libraries.

Come find out how to create a broker that uses some of the latest features of the Cloud Foundry Service Broker API and is well tested using Ginkgo.
