HOW TO: Get a cheaper rate with Marriott Hotels
After working in Philadelphia and staying in an hotel week-by-week, I often like to get an evening meal in the hotel bar and grab some nutrition prior to the evening events. Whilst I was trying to complete my solutions design document for Identity certification and RBAC framework, I nice guy called Jeff engaged with me in a light conversion Jeff, a telecommunications consultant working for a health care company, was wanting to talk about everything. College basketball on TV, Local Strip Clubs and Phili Cheese Steak.
Within a split moment, I he did start talking about other hotels other than the one we were in, more specifically the Marriott near the city hall in Philadelphia. He did mention, regardless on location, that you can go onto the Marriott website and enter the Corporate/promotional code = IBM within the 'Special Rates & Rewards'.
I decided to go online and give this a try. Turns out it knocks around 10% off the total value, which is AWESOME.
You can check this out yourself at Marriott Home
You can see within the screenshot the difference in the prices once this is added within the Special Rates and Rewards textfield.
Before Special IBM Rate Code
After Special IBM Rate Code
He did however mention that they don't validate this. I would question this though I wouldn't be surprised considering the fact that every week there's an enormous number of booking of IBM associates on a global scale.
I have never used this though I would be interested to hear of people how have attempted this.

The WeMos D1 is a ESP8266 WiFi based board is an extension to the current out-of-the-box library that comes with the Arduino installation. Because of this, you need to import in the libraries as well as acknowledging the specific board. This process is highly confusion with a number of different individuals talking about a number of different ways to integrate.

For what I see, there's not too many supportive documentations out there that will demonstrate how provision AD group membership with the ICF connector using OpenIDM. The use of the special ldapGroups attribute is not explained anywhere in the Integrators guides to to the date of this blog. This quick blog identifies the tasks required to provision AD group membership from OpenIDM to AD using the LDAP ICF connector. However this doesn't really explain what ldapGroups actually does and there's no real worked example of how to go from an Assignment to ldapGroups to an assigned group in AD. I wrote up a wiki article for my own reference: AD group memberships automatically to users This is just my view, others may disagree, but I think the implementation experience could be improved with some more documentation and a more detailed example here.

In the past, the similar error occurred though for the Oracle Identity Management solution. invalidcredentialexception remote framework key is invalid Because they all share the ICF connector framework, the error/solution would be the same.
