Hi,
FYI, Apache Syncope is a provisioning engine, e.g. takes care of keeping
account data synchronized across identity stores and a wide range of
data formats, models, meanings and purposes.
If you are looking for authentication / authorization you should better
find other projects like as Apache CXF Fediz or the other products you
name below.
About multi-tenancy, it is currently planned for next major version (see
[1], SYNCOPE-119).
About horizontal scalability, see this example with Apache Tomcat 7 [2].
Regards.

Primarily considering Authentication and Authorization:
Out the box, can Syncope support horizontal scalability? I am not too =
worried about this aspect because I figure with access to the code I can =
make this work.
A bigger issue is how to support multi-tenancy? Are there any nods =
toward multi-tenant design? Can I dynamically setup each tenant as a =
different data source? Multi-Tenancy is a potential deal-breaker. I can =
setup different datasources one per tenant, but I cannot have a =
different instance of Syncope one per tenant.
Any thoughts?
PS - beginner - I just read through all the documentation a few minutes =
ago.
Is the OpenAM stack any better for my needs? I have not looked at it yet =
and am wary of possible license issues. We need the most permissive =
licenses.
How about the JBoss Picket-Fence-named suites? Any comments on those?
