There are a few ways you could approach it. One way would be an external daemon 
that runs and feeds data into a seperate 389 topology.

Another way would be a new "replication plugin" in the server so that 389 can 
consume data from azure AD.

But both of them will need to read data from azure AD and know:

* What have we seen before?
* What's changed?
* How to transform the azure ad entry to something 389 can understand.

So I think the first place to start is knowing what API's azure AD has for 
external applications to synchronise data from azure AD. (Getting back into 
azure is another problem of it's own that can be for later).

Maybe these two urls are a starting point. 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/hybrid/how-to-connect-sync-endpoint-api-v2

OR

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/synchronization-overview?view=graph-rest-beta

So I think that's where to start. Then you could probably write a toy-demo 
application that can read from the sync api. Then you can build it out from 
there to push data to 389. 

Does that help?
