Why teams connect Apache Impala and Jobvite

Land the people and organization records from Jobvite in Apache Impala as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Jobvite can use them.

Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Jobvite is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in Apache Impala next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Employee, Attachment, Offer, Candidate from Jobvite into tables in Apache Impala continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Apache Impala, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Jobvite where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.

Common use cases

  • 01 Serve fast extracts of Hadoop-resident tables to operational databases and SaaS tools through Impala instead of slow batch engines.
  • 02 Sync mutable reference data into Kudu tables via Impala so row-level updates are possible on the Hadoop side.
  • 03 Write New Hire records into an HRIS or onboarding system the moment a candidate is marked hired, driven by Jobvite's candidate hired webhook.
  • 04 Push headcount-approved Requisitions from an internal planning database into Jobvite via POST /job so approved roles post to the career site automatically.

Common sync patterns

Headcount and cost joined with everything else

Analysts combine Jobvite's workforce records with finance, product, or operational data already in Apache Impala for reporting the HR system cannot produce on its own.

Fresh data instead of last night's load

Because changes stream continuously, reports query current workforce data rather than waiting for an overnight load window to finish.

Queryable history for planning and audit

A continuously synced copy in Apache Impala gives you a durable, queryable record of how Jobvite's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

What you can sync between Apache Impala 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.

Apache Impala objects Jobvite objects How this pairing syncs
Users and Roles Principals (often via Ranger/Sentry) used to grant scoped read access. Offer Offer state tied to an application (extended, accepted, declined); read out for offer-acceptance reporting and written to downstream comp or HR systems. Users and Roles is specific to Apache Impala and Offer to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Namespaces shared with the Hive Metastore that scope tables. Candidate Read from the candidate feed (GET /candidate) and written back via POST /candidate/updateCandidates to change status, notes, and disposition on each record. Databases is specific to Apache Impala and Candidate to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables HDFS or object-storage backed tables (commonly Parquet) read at interactive speed. Requisition (Job) Job openings created or updated through POST /job and read from GET /jobFeed; maps to opening tables in an ATS reporting warehouse. Tables is specific to Apache Impala and Requisition (Job) to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Partition values used to limit scans and drive incremental reads. Application Links a candidate to one requisition with its workflow state; read for pipeline reporting and status written back through the candidate update call. Partitions is specific to Apache Impala and Application to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Logical views readable as modeled sources. Workflow Status The pipeline stage per application (Screen, Interview, Offer, Hired); updated through POST /candidate/updateCandidates to advance records. Views is specific to Apache Impala and Workflow Status to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Kudu Tables Kudu-backed tables that support row-level insert, update, upsert, and delete. New Hire Hired-candidate records surfaced in the candidate feed and via the candidate hired webhook; commonly written into an HRIS or onboarding tool. Kudu Tables is specific to Apache Impala and New Hire to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Impala 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.

Apache Impala Jobvite Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Apache Impala for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on partition or timestamp columns.

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

Jobvite Apache Impala 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 Apache Impala as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Impala: No API quotas; concurrency is bounded by cluster resources and admission control settings.
  • 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.

Jobvite

Integration surface
REST API (JSON) with candidate, requisition (job), and employee feed endpoints under https://api.jobvite.com/{version}
Authentication
API key (api) and secret (sc) plus company ID (companyId), sent in request headers since Jobvite's April 1, 2024 move from URL-query to header-based auth. Credentials are provisioned per customer by Jobvite Support.
Change detection
A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events; otherwise Stacksync polls the candidate and job feeds on a schedule and diffs results, since records carry no per-item modified-date filter.
