Topic: Building an OSS External CF-BOSH CPI for IBM Bluemix

Description: Dr Max and his team created a new open source CPI written in Go (see BOSH Softlayer CPI on Github (https://github.com/maximilien/bosh-softlayer-cpi)). It's been used to deploy Cloud Foundry (IBM Bluemix) on Softlayer, and can be used as a base for creating new External CPIs. Dr. Max will share lessons learned, best practices and pointers so anyone can use the eCPI to build deploy Cloud Foundry on any Cloud.
