Setting up custom user repositories | HCL Digital Experience
A custom user repository is any repository that HCL Portal does not support out-of-box. However, you can configure HCL Portal to support any type of repository in a federated or stand-alone user registry, whether an LDAP directory, database, file system, and so on. Setting up custom user repositories involves tasks such as defining additional repositories to the default federated user registry, creating a custom stand-alone user repository, and updating your user repository to reflect changes in your environment. Learn what steps are required to create and update custom user repositories and what specific interfaces you must implement to enable communication between HCL Portal and a repository.

An implementation of the UserRegistry interface that supports multiple repositories. To communicate with the federated repositories, both WebSphere® Application Server and HCL Portal dispatch all operations to VMM.
