πŸ”„ SCIM

Standards-based identity synchronization framework supporting automated access provisioning across SCIM 2.0-compatible systems.

Overview

SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management) integration in Lumos provides standardized identity synchronization across SCIM 2.0-compatible systems. This enterprise-ready implementation supports both SCIM client and provider roles, enabling bidirectional identity flow with granular attribute mapping and transformation capabilities.

Real-World Example

  • Scenario: A multinational corporation needs to automatically provision and deprovision user accounts across multiple cloud services that support SCIM.
  • Outcome: Established automated identity synchronization across all SCIM-enabled systems, reducing administrative overhead by 70%.
  • Implementation: Configured Lumos as a SCIM provider, established connections with target systems and implemented automated access workflows.

Benefits

  • Standards Compliance: Avoid vendor lock-in and simplify integrations by adopting an established industry standard
  • Reduced Complexity: Standardized approach eliminates custom integration code
  • Enterprise Scale:Handles large user populations and complex organizational structures
  • Error Handling:Robust error management and synchronization conflict resolution

Considerations

  • Must ensure target systems properly implement SCIM 2.0 specification
  • May need to handle schema differences between systems
