Abstract
A method for providing an on-premises virtual directory system for an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) to SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management) proxy service is provided. The method includes providing an LDAP Directory Information Tree (DIT) including LDAP DIT entries, providing a SCIM directory including SCIM resource entries, migrating the LDAP DIT entries to the SCIM directory, creating a virtual LDAP hierarchy based on LDAP DIT hierarchical information stored in the SCIM directory, and displaying a graphical user interface (GUI) for a directory services application that includes a data tree pane that depicts the virtual LDAP hierarchy. Creating the virtual LDAP hierarchy includes storing the LDAP DIT hierarchical information in the SCIM directory by mapping LDAP containers to SCIM user or SCIM group attributes, mapping LDAP containers to special marker SCIM groups, mapping LDAP user DNs to SCIM user externalIDs, or mapping LDAP group DNs to SCIM group externalIDs.
