Why teams connect Apache Cassandra and Smartrecruiters

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: Apache Cassandra and Smartrecruiters share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

Smartrecruiters is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. Apache Cassandra is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Candidates, Applications, Jobs, Job Postings in Smartrecruiters need to exist as queryable Keyspaces, Tables, Partitions and Rows, Materialized Views in Apache Cassandra 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 Keyspaces, Tables, Partitions and Rows, Materialized Views in Apache Cassandra with Candidates, Applications, Jobs, Job Postings in Smartrecruiters field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Smartrecruiters 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 Sync customer profile data between Cassandra and a CRM so operational apps and sales tools agree.
  • 02 Write attributes computed elsewhere (scores, preferences) back into Cassandra tables serving low-latency reads.
  • 03 Export Interviews and Offers to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load, offer-acceptance rates, and hiring outcomes.
  • 04 Subscribe to the Webhooks API to react to new applications and status changes in near real time across downstream systems.

Common sync patterns

Reporting and analytics on current data

Candidates, Applications, Jobs, Job Postings replicate into Apache Cassandra 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 Smartrecruiters stay consistent in Apache Cassandra, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in Apache Cassandra write onto the matching record in Smartrecruiters where those fields are writable, keeping the people system enriched.

What you can sync between Apache Cassandra and Smartrecruiters

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.

Apache Cassandra objects Smartrecruiters objects How this pairing syncs
Keyspaces Top-level namespaces with replication settings that scope a sync connection. Interviews Interview types, timeslots, templates, and scheduled interviews with interviewers and times; created, updated, and read for scheduling and interviewer-load analytics. Keyspaces is specific to Apache Cassandra and Interviews to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Wide-column tables addressed by partition key, the unit of row-level sync. Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status, custom offer fields, and offer documents; readable and writable, commonly synced to an HRIS on hire (documents endpoint limited to 2 requests/sec). Tables is specific to Apache Cassandra and Offers to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions and Rows Records located by partition and clustering keys during reads and upserts. Users Company users (recruiters, hiring managers) with roles, access groups, and activation state; read and written via the User Management API. Partitions and Rows is specific to Apache Cassandra and Users to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Server-maintained denormalized views; considered experimental and disabled by default in recent releases. Approvals Approval requests for jobs and offers; requests can be created, retrieved as pending, commented on, and approved or rejected via the Approvals API. Materialized Views is specific to Apache Cassandra and Approvals to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Secondary Indexes Optional indexes that allow filtered reads outside the partition key. Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, attachments, custom properties, and consent; created, updated, and searched via the Candidates API, often populated from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Secondary Indexes is specific to Apache Cassandra and Candidates to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
User-Defined Types Composite column types that syncs must flatten or map to structured fields. Applications Links a Candidate to a Job and carries the current hiring status and source; created and advanced through statuses (screening, interview, offer, hired, rejected) via the Application API. User-Defined Types is specific to Apache Cassandra and Applications to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Cassandra and Smartrecruiters

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.

Apache Cassandra Smartrecruiters Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Apache Cassandra are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Commit-log based CDC on tables with CDC enabled, or polling using writetime metadata and timestamp columns.

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

Smartrecruiters Apache Cassandra Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartrecruiters notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks API — subscribe to events (new application, candidate updated, status changed) delivered with a signing secret and retrievable callback logs.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Cassandra: No API quotas; throughput is governed by cluster capacity and consistency-level choices.
  • Smartrecruiters: Per API credential: most endpoints allow up to 10 requests/sec (job publication and offer documents 2/sec), plus a concurrency limiter of up to 8 simultaneous requests (GET /candidates capped at 1). Exceeding returns 429; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit/Remaining and concurrent-limit headers.
