Overview#
SCIM 2.0 is built on a object model where a SCIM Resource is the common denominator and all SCIM objects are derived from it.SCIM Resource is a collection of SCIM Attributes identified by one or more SCIM Schemas. (Much like an LDAP Entry is a collection AttributeTypes identified by one or more ObjectClass)
Unlike LDAP ObjectClass, SCIM Schemas are NOT inheritable. Each SCIM Schema is more like AUXILIARY ObjectClasses
