<div>My school's sites are: DSpace , KOHA, Mail Server, Registration Server. And, they are using for last 4-5 years. I am also not sure if DSpace or KOHA or Mail Server will be able to support Service Provider.</div>

<div>Is there any link from where I can learn about configuring metadata exchange of a third party service provider server like our DSpace or KOHA?</div>

Well, roughly, you have to deploy an IdP somewhere (if you mean that<br>
you're running the IdP), install an SP on each server hosting a site,<br>
configure them, and exchange SAML metadata between them.<br>
<br>
And then you have to modify the applications to stop doing authentication.<br>
That part is not something that can be described fully without knowing<br>
what they are or what they do. There could be large changes or minimal<br>
ones. There are session management considerations in some cases. It just<br>
depends.<br>
