Why teams connect Apache Cassandra and Ukg Pro

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

Ukg Pro 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: Configuration Setup (Code Tables), Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person Details), Employment Details in Ukg Pro need to exist as queryable Collections, Counters, Keyspaces, Tables 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 Collections, Counters, Keyspaces, Tables in Apache Cassandra with Configuration Setup (Code Tables), Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person Details), Employment Details in Ukg Pro field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Ukg Pro 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 Replicate high-volume event or profile tables from Cassandra into a warehouse for analytics that CQL cannot express.
  • 02 Sync customer profile data between Cassandra and a CRM so operational apps and sales tools agree.
  • 03 Replicate Compensation and pay-statement / earnings history into a warehouse for headcount, labor-cost, and payroll reporting without manual BI exports.
  • 04 Deprovision accounts by subscribing to UKG Pro termination and job-change webhook events to disable IdP and app access as changes become effective.

Common sync patterns

Computed and operational fields flow back

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

Mirror people records into the database

Records maintained in Ukg Pro land as queryable Collections, Counters, Keyspaces, Tables in Apache Cassandra, so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.

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.

What you can sync between Apache Cassandra and Ukg Pro

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 Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Counters Increment-only counter columns, usually read-only in syncs. Time & Attendance (UTA) Timekeeping and worked-hours data exposed by the UTA services; synced into scheduling, payroll, or workforce-analytics databases. Counters is specific to Apache Cassandra and Time & Attendance (UTA) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Keyspaces Top-level namespaces with replication settings that scope a sync connection. Employee (Person Details) Core worker record with demographics and identifiers; read by listing employee IDs then fetching each profile, and created on hire via the personnel/onboarding endpoints. Keyspaces is specific to Apache Cassandra and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — 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. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Tables is specific to Apache Cassandra and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — 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. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Partitions and Rows is specific to Apache Cassandra and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — 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. Compensation Details Effective-dated pay rate and salary; usually read into a warehouse for comp reporting and writable as new dated changes through the compensation endpoints. Materialized Views is specific to Apache Cassandra and Compensation Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Secondary Indexes Optional indexes that allow filtered reads outside the partition key. Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) Pay statements, direct-deposit accounts, and earnings history; read-only pay data replicated into finance and warehouse systems for labor-cost reporting. Secondary Indexes is specific to Apache Cassandra and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Cassandra and Ukg Pro

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 Ukg Pro 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 Ukg Pro through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Ukg Pro Apache Cassandra Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Pro notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No CDC stream.

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.
  • Ukg Pro: An API gateway throttles calls per client over a rolling window (typically per minute); UKG does not publish exact numeric thresholds. Exceeding the limit returns HTTP 429, and UKG recommends a roughly one-second looping backoff before resuming (a Retry-After header is not yet standard). Reads are offset-paginated.

Ukg Pro

Integration surface
REST API (UKG Pro HCM REST services) with separate Onboarding and Recruiting REST APIs, plus legacy SOAP-based UKG Pro Web Services
Authentication
Core HCM REST APIs use HTTP Basic authentication with a dedicated web service account, plus a Customer API Key and a User API Key sent as headers (found under System Configuration > Security > Service Account Administration); the Onboarding and Recruiting REST APIs instead require a bearer Authorization Token from the token endpoint.
Change detection
No CDC stream. UKG Pro publishes Pro HCM Webhook Events for changes such as new hire, employee and job detail changes, termination, and PTO, which Stacksync subscribes to for near-real-time triggers; bulk and historical loads use paged reads with each service's modified-since filters.
