FWIW, we recently successfully pointed our CAS-protocol-reliant services (Banner and closely related services) to our existing Shibboleth IdP (they had relied on separate CAS servers for what I'll call historical reasons), enabling us to decommission multiple dedicated CAS servers. Configuration of CAS-protocol-reliant services is somewhat different than either (Apereo) CAS or the SAML2-protocol-reliant services in Shibboleth, but the switch is essentially invisible to users while providing them a more valuable SSO session. In our case, the actual change-over was merely a DNS change for the CAS service to point to the Shibboleth IdP and required 0 changes to CAS-reliant services themselves.

I'd recommend using the IdP as a CAS server, or dumping the IdP and using CAS as the SAML server, but I have no idea why the CAS extension would requires server side storage.
