Use Cases

Identity lifecycle paths where standard SCIM alone is not enough.

Start with the operational problem: provisioning intent crosses an authority boundary, Linux enforcement still matters, and the rollout needs evidence, reconciliation, and recovery.

Use case paths

Okta to FreeIPA

Map Okta SCIM lifecycle intent into FreeIPA-backed Linux identity operations.

SCIM provisioning + FreeIPA authority

Entra to Linux

Coordinate Microsoft Entra intent with Linux account enforcement and directory boundaries.

Integration-ready

Mixed-authority lifecycle

Separate source of truth, approval, directory state, and runtime enforcement.

Authority boundary

Joiner / mover / leaver safety

Control create, role change, and disable paths with evidence and rollback readiness.

Lifecycle control

Audit-ready rollback

Show who changed what, why it was allowed, what evidence exists, and how to recover.

Audit evidence

Messaging pattern

  1. State the user problem in familiar language.
  2. Explain the mechanism: SCIM, directory mapping, validation, and controlled execution.
  3. Show the authority boundary and rollout risk.
  4. Show how FreeSCIM reduces ambiguity or blast radius.
  5. Point to the evidence artifact and next action.
