It doesn't do anything but defer to a header from a reverse proxy. You do whatever you want in the proxy.

"Under proxied authentication, all RStudio products accept a secure HTTP header containing a key-value pair that identifies the user. The name of the key is set in the relevant product's configuration file."

The proxy can be Apache with CAS or Shibboleth or something else with CAS or whatever else you want. Just think of it as a Java app if you want to put the SP in front of it.

There are certainly worse options, like them half-assing a SAML implementation. Good for them, I guess.
