Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and Ukg Ready

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

Ukg Ready is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. Amazon Lightsail is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Compensation, Timesheet Entries, Accruals / Time Off, Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) in Ukg Ready need to exist as queryable Users and Grants, Managed Databases, Databases, Schemas in Amazon Lightsail 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 Users and Grants, Managed Databases, Databases, Schemas in Amazon Lightsail with Compensation, Timesheet Entries, Accruals / Time Off, Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) in Ukg Ready field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Ukg Ready 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 Migrate data continuously from a Lightsail database to a larger managed database as an application outgrows the VPS tier.
  • 02 Sync a Lightsail-hosted application database with a CRM so customer records match what the app stores.
  • 03 Create new-hire Employee records in UKG Ready from an ATS or onboarding workflow, including position, cost center, and compensation fields.
  • 04 Feed Timesheet Entries and Accruals/Time Off into a data warehouse for labor-cost, overtime, and PTO-liability reporting.

Common sync patterns

One directory of record

When a person record is added, changed, or deactivated in either system, the matching row in the other stays current, ending dual maintenance.

Reporting and analytics on current data

Compensation, Timesheet Entries, Accruals / Time Off, Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) replicate into Amazon Lightsail 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 Ukg Ready stay consistent in Amazon Lightsail, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

What you can sync between Amazon Lightsail and Ukg Ready

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 Lightsail objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Views Query-backed read-only sources. Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Views is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Reports (Report-as-a-Service) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Grants Database accounts used to give the sync connection scoped access. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Users and Grants is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Managed Databases Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases. Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. Managed Databases is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection. Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Databases is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces used when selecting tables to sync. Timesheet Entries Time-and-attendance punches, hours worked, and breaks; written from external time systems and read into warehouses for labor-cost reporting. Schemas is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Timesheet Entries to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables read from and written to at row level. Accruals / Time Off PTO balances, requests, and approver status; read for liability reporting and requests can be created against employee records. Tables is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Accruals / Time Off to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Lightsail and Ukg Ready

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 Lightsail Ukg Ready Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Amazon Lightsail for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on timestamp or key columns.

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

Ukg Ready Amazon Lightsail Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Ready notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. UKG Webhooks for select events (employee.created, employee.updated, account/org changes) with HMAC signing.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon Lightsail: No API-style rate limits; capacity is fixed by the chosen Lightsail bundle.
  • Ukg Ready: Rate limits apply over roughly a 1-minute window and return HTTP 429 when exceeded (back off / exponential retry); UKG Webhooks run on a tiered quota with a free tier around 10,000 event notifications per month and 14-day event retention.

How the Amazon Lightsail and Ukg Ready connectors work

Amazon Lightsail

Integration surface
MySQL or PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL) to the managed database endpoint
Authentication
Database credentials; public endpoint access must be enabled or a tunnel used
Change detection
Polling on timestamp or key columns; log-based CDC depends on engine parameter access, which is more limited than on full RDS
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API-style rate limits; capacity is fixed by the chosen Lightsail bundle

Ukg Ready

Integration surface
UKG Ready REST API (v1/v2) plus the Import Tool (XML transactions) and Report-as-a-Service (IBM Cognos); a legacy SOAP API also exists
Authentication
A 7-digit company short name, a Web API key (Company Setup > Login Config), and a dedicated API service-account user (username/password) are exchanged for a session Bearer token sent on every request; Onboarding/Recruiting endpoints use a separate authorization token
Change detection
UKG Webhooks for select events (employee.created, employee.updated, account/org changes) with HMAC signing; broad change capture via polling REST endpoints with date filters or scheduled Report-as-a-Service extracts
Capabilities
