Hi, I am trying to use Gluu as a SCIM implementation which can be plugged into my own SCIM user manager which then talks to underlying user core using the user core API. Is this possible within Gluu architecture? if so, for achieving this requirement what are the available possibilities within the Gluu architecture which I can use ? . (eg - my SCIM user manager can implement the Gluu API interface if such interface is available) Following diagram shows a high level overview of what my architecture need to be.![enter image description here](https://s13.postimg.org/y6lo2q1x3/gluua.jpg "enter image title here")

The Gluu Server was designed to be an identity and access management platform, not a identity management workflow platform. With that said, you might be able to achieve some of your goals by using hte SCIM custom interception scripts. When a user is added via SCIM, you have the ability to add some custom business logic via the interception script mechanism. For example, for a POST to /users you could add some custom code to update an RDBMS via JDBC and Active Directory, as in your diagram. You'd have to be a pretty good java programmer to get this done.
