Why teams connect Apache Kylin and BambooHR

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

Apache Kylin is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into BambooHR, so BambooHR always reflects the current state of Apache Kylin — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

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 BambooHR is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in Apache Kylin next to everything else the company measures.

Common use cases

  • 01 Expose Kylin query results to operational dashboards without granting access to the underlying Hadoop data.
  • 02 Sync Kylin aggregates into a cloud warehouse to combine them with data Kylin does not cover.
  • 03 Sync Employees and Employment Status to identity and IT systems so new hires are provisioned and departures deactivated automatically.
  • 04 Read Job Information and Departments into an ERP or planning tool so headcount, cost centers, and org structure stay current.

Common sync patterns

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 Kylin gives you a durable, queryable record of how BambooHR's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

Write-back of computed values

Segments, rollups, or risk flags computed in Apache Kylin sync back onto the matching records in BambooHR, where the HR team sees them in the system they already use.

What you can sync between Apache Kylin and BambooHR

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 Kylin objects BambooHR objects How this pairing syncs
Build Jobs Batch jobs that compute or refresh segments, monitored via the REST API. Employment Status Effective-dated hire, leave, and termination status; drives automated provisioning and deprovisioning in downstream identity and license systems. Build Jobs is specific to Apache Kylin and Employment Status to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Projects Top-level workspaces that group models, tables, and jobs. Departments and Divisions Org-structure list values; synced to keep cost centers and team groupings consistent across ERP, identity, and analytics systems. Projects is specific to Apache Kylin and Departments and Divisions to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Models Star-schema definitions over source tables that determine what can be queried. Custom Tables Company-specific effective-dated tables (assets, training, certifications); rows read and written so custom HR data isn't trapped in the HRIS. Models is specific to Apache Kylin and Custom Tables to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cubes / Indexes Pre-computed aggregate structures that answer queries at low latency. Reports Saved company reports retrievable via API; read out on a schedule to feed a warehouse without rebuilding field-by-field queries. Cubes / Indexes is specific to Apache Kylin and Reports to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Source Tables Hive or other upstream tables that builds read from. Employees The core person record with personal and work fields; read out to identity, payroll, and IT systems, and written back from recruiting or onboarding tools. Source Tables is specific to Apache Kylin and Employees to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Time-ranged build units that partition pre-computed data. Job Information Effective-dated job title, department, division, location, and reporting line; synced so org charts and provisioning systems track internal moves. Segments is specific to Apache Kylin and Job Information to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Kylin and BambooHR

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 Kylin BambooHR Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Apache Kylin for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Data freshness follows segment build and refresh jobs, so integrations poll query results.

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

BambooHR Apache Kylin Sub-second propagation

DetectionBambooHR notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. The Get Updated Employee IDs endpoint (last-changed timestamps) returns employees inserted, updated, or deleted since a cursor for efficient polling.

DeliveryApache Kylin does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Apache Kylin's output flows back as field updates on the originating BambooHR records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Kylin: No fixed API quotas; query capacity depends on the deployment and pre-computed index coverage.
  • BambooHR: Requests are rate-limited per API key with standard REST throttling (429 on excess); bulk reads are best done through saved Reports or the updated-IDs delta endpoint rather than per-employee calls.
