Why teams connect Apache Pinot and Workday

Land the financial records from Workday in Apache Pinot continuously, and write results back, without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Finance data belongs in the warehouse: revenue, invoices, payments, and customers joined with everything else the business measures. Getting it there usually means an extraction pipeline that breaks quietly and delivers yesterday's numbers.

Stacksync syncs Journal Entries, Custom Reports (RaaS), Workers, Organizations from Workday into tables in Apache Pinot in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in Apache Pinot can be written back to fields in Workday where you want them operational. Schema changes are handled, API limits are managed, and the sync is something you configure rather than code you maintain.

Common use cases

  • Keep supervisory-organization hierarchies aligned with planning and workforce tools that model the same structure.
  • Sync worker records from Workday into IT and identity systems so hires, transfers, and terminations provision access automatically.
  • Sync Pinot aggregates into a warehouse to join low-latency metrics with modeled historical data.
  • Serve user-facing analytics from Pinot while syncing daily rollups to finance and ops tools.

Finance analytics without ETL

Invoices, payments, and customer records from Workday arrive in Apache Pinot as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind.

Revenue joined with everything else

Analysts combine Workday's financial records with product, marketing, or operational data already in Apache Pinot for reporting the finance system cannot do alone.

Write-back of computed fields

Scores or segments computed in Apache Pinot, like payment-risk flags or customer tiers, sync back onto records in Workday where the finance team can act on them.

What you can sync between Apache Pinot and Workday

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 Pinot objects Workday objects
Schemas Column definitions (dimensions, metrics, time columns) mapped during integration setup. Time Off and Absence Balances and requests synced with scheduling and workforce tools.
Segments Immutable data files that batch ingestion uploads and the cluster serves. Payroll Results Completed pay data exported to finance and benefits systems.
Real-time Tables Tables fed continuously from streams like Kafka, including upsert-enabled tables. Suppliers Workday Financials vendor records aligned with procurement tools.
Offline Tables Batch-loaded tables merged with real-time data at query time. Customers and Invoices Financials receivables objects synced for billing visibility where Workday Financials is used.
Indexes Inverted, range, and star-tree indexes that determine which sync queries run at low latency. Journal Entries Accounting entries imported from external subledgers into Workday Financials.
Tenants Logical groupings that isolate workloads on shared clusters. Custom Reports (RaaS) Tenant-defined reports exposed as web service endpoints, often the practical read surface for syncs.

How the Apache Pinot and Workday connectors work

Apache Pinot

Integration surface
REST API (SQL queries via the broker; administration via the controller); JDBC client available
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: HTTP basic authentication or token-based auth where enabled
Change detection
Not applicable for reads out (polling by time column); data enters Pinot via streaming ingestion or segment upload, not row-level writes
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed API quotas; query throughput depends on broker and server sizing

Workday

Integration surface
SOAP Workday Web Services (WWS), a REST API, and Reports-as-a-Service (RaaS) endpoints for custom reports
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 for the REST API; integration system users with WS-Security or certificate-based auth for SOAP
Change detection
Polling, including transaction-log criteria on SOAP operations to fetch objects changed since a given moment; no general webhook surface
Capabilities
read · write
