Why teams connect Amazon DynamoDB and Jobvite

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: Amazon DynamoDB and Jobvite share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

Jobvite is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. Amazon DynamoDB is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Candidate, Requisition (Job), Application, Workflow Status in Jobvite need to exist as queryable Time to Live (TTL), Tables, Items, Global secondary indexes (GSIs) in Amazon DynamoDB before an app can act on them. When that bridge is a nightly export or a hand-run CSV, every downstream system spends the day working from a roster that has already moved on.

Stacksync syncs Time to Live (TTL), Tables, Items, Global secondary indexes (GSIs) in Amazon DynamoDB with Candidate, Requisition (Job), Application, Workflow Status in Jobvite field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Jobvite typically owns identity and org attributes, while operational or computed values can flow back the other way — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent, matching records on a stable key and resolving conflicts by rules you set.

The result is one live picture of the workforce on both sides: HR keeps its source of truth, and the database keeps a current mirror that internal apps, reports, and access controls can trust without a batch window in between.

Common use cases

  • 01 Backfill or migrate records into DynamoDB from another database using BatchWriteItem, then keep the two stores in continuous sync.
  • 02 Mirror a high-write DynamoDB table into a relational database so teams can join NoSQL application data against relational tables for reporting.
  • 03 Sync Employee roster data into Jobvite with POST /employee to power employee-referral matching and internal-mobility postings.
  • 04 Two-way sync Candidate records and their Workflow Status between Jobvite and a Postgres database so recruiting-ops teams query and update pipeline data in SQL.

Common sync patterns

Reporting and analytics on current data

Candidate, Requisition (Job), Application, Workflow Status replicate into Amazon DynamoDB where they join operational tables, so headcount, roles, and status reports run on the live state without manual pulls.

Org and structure stay aligned

Groups, departments, managers, and reporting lines from Jobvite stay consistent in Amazon DynamoDB, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in Amazon DynamoDB write onto the matching record in Jobvite where those fields are writable, keeping the people system enriched.

What you can sync between Amazon DynamoDB and Jobvite

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Amazon DynamoDB objects Jobvite objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Top-level containers, each with a partition key and optional sort key; Stacksync syncs a table as a stream of items with full read and write via PutItem, UpdateItem, and DeleteItem. Employee Employee roster pushed through POST /employee (Onboard sync), used for referral matching and internal-mobility job postings. Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Employee to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Individual schemaless records (attributes up to 400 KB each); read with GetItem, Query, and Scan and written with PutItem or BatchWriteItem, so write is supported here. Attachment Resumes, cover letters, and files attached to a candidate; synced out to object storage or a document management system. Items is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Attachment to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global secondary indexes (GSIs) Alternate key projections that let you Query by non-key attributes without a full table Scan; read-only views maintained automatically by DynamoDB. Offer Offer state tied to an application (extended, accepted, declined); read out for offer-acceptance reporting and written to downstream comp or HR systems. Global secondary indexes (GSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Offer to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Local secondary indexes (LSIs) Extra sort keys within the same partition key, defined at table creation; queried like the base table for alternate access patterns. Candidate Read from the candidate feed (GET /candidate) and written back via POST /candidate/updateCandidates to change status, notes, and disposition on each record. Local secondary indexes (LSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Candidate to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with old/new image views and 24-hour retention; the native change-data-capture source Stacksync reads for near-real-time sync. Requisition (Job) Job openings created or updated through POST /job and read from GET /jobFeed; maps to opening tables in an ATS reporting warehouse. DynamoDB Streams is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Requisition (Job) to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global Tables Multi-region, active-active replicas of a table kept in sync by DynamoDB; each region is read and written locally with last-writer-wins conflict resolution. Application Links a candidate to one requisition with its workflow state; read for pipeline reporting and status written back through the candidate update call. Global Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Application to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon DynamoDB and Jobvite

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Amazon DynamoDB Jobvite Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon DynamoDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Jobvite through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Jobvite Amazon DynamoDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionJobvite notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Amazon DynamoDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon DynamoDB: Throughput is metered in read/write capacity units (provisioned or on-demand): 1 WCU = one 1 KB write per second, 1 RCU = one strongly-consistent 4 KB read per second. Exceeding capacity or the ~3,000 RCU / 1,000 WCU per-partition ceiling returns ProvisionedThroughputExceededException with throttling.
  • Jobvite: Roughly 15 requests per minute and 850 per hour, reset at midnight Pacific, with per-endpoint daily caps (e.g. 20,000/day candidate GET/PUT, 500/day employee sync); 429 on exceed.

How the Amazon DynamoDB and Jobvite connectors work

Amazon DynamoDB

Integration surface
AWS SDK / low-level HTTPS JSON API at dynamodb.<region>.amazonaws.com (PutItem, GetItem, UpdateItem, DeleteItem, Query, Scan, BatchWriteItem, TransactWriteItems), plus PartiQL (ExecuteStatement) for SQL-style access and DynamoDB Streams for change capture.
Authentication
AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4) signed requests using an IAM access key ID and secret key, or temporary STS credentials from an assumed IAM role; IAM policies scope access down to table and item level.
Change detection
DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views and 24-hour retention, read via shard iterators (or Kinesis Data Streams for longer retention). No native HTTP webhooks.
