    Yes, please see https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/baw/25.0.x?topic=environment-configuring-third-party-authentication-products

    Even when connecting to an IdP for authentication, you still need access to user, group, and membership data, hence you still need to connect to LDAP.

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/was/8.5.5?topic=users-configuring-openid-connect-relying-party describes the traditional WebSphere OIDC configuration.

    You can do that on containers as well where we use CPFS in the background. I have tried a couple of scenarios with integration to external IDPs like Auth0, ID.me, RHSSO (based on keycloak).
