Why teams connect CockroachDB and Ukg Pro

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: CockroachDB 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. CockroachDB is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Terminations, Configuration Setup (Code Tables), Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person Details) in Ukg Pro need to exist as queryable Changefeeds, Databases, Schemas, Tables in CockroachDB 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 Changefeeds, Databases, Schemas, Tables in CockroachDB with Terminations, Configuration Setup (Code Tables), Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person 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 Use changefeeds to propagate row changes from a multi-region cluster into a warehouse or search index.
  • 02 Keep reference data consistent between CockroachDB and regional application databases.
  • 03 Deprovision accounts by subscribing to UKG Pro termination and job-change webhook events to disable IdP and app access as changes become effective.
  • 04 Keep Configuration code tables (jobs, locations, departments, cost centers) aligned between UKG Pro and an ERP so org and cost-center hierarchies match.

Common sync patterns

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in CockroachDB 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 Changefeeds, Databases, Schemas, Tables in CockroachDB, 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 CockroachDB 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.

CockroachDB objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Changefeeds Built-in CDC streams that emit row-level changes to external sinks. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Changefeeds is specific to CockroachDB and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Databases is specific to CockroachDB and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables from application tables. 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. Schemas is specific to CockroachDB and Compensation Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The core read/write target; rows sync bi-directionally with SaaS objects or other databases. 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. Tables is specific to CockroachDB and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used as curated sync sources. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Views is specific to CockroachDB and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes Secondary indexes that keep sync lookup queries fast on key columns. Configuration Setup (Code Tables) Reference data such as jobs, locations, positions, earnings, and deduction codes; used to resolve and validate field values when mapping records during sync. Indexes is specific to CockroachDB and Configuration Setup (Code Tables) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between CockroachDB 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.

CockroachDB Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in CockroachDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes.

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

Ukg Pro CockroachDB Sub-second propagation

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

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to CockroachDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • CockroachDB: No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput is bounded by cluster capacity.
  • 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.

How the CockroachDB and Ukg Pro connectors work

CockroachDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible)
Authentication
Database credentials with TLS; client certificates or SCRAM password auth
Change detection
CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes; polling as a fallback
Capabilities

Rate limits

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.
Capabilities

Rate limits
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.
