Why teams connect DuckDB and Ukg Ready
Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: DuckDB and Ukg Ready share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.
Ukg Ready is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. DuckDB is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation, Timesheet Entries in Ukg Ready need to exist as queryable Database files, Schemas, Tables, Views in DuckDB 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 Database files, Schemas, Tables, Views in DuckDB with Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation, Timesheet Entries in Ukg Ready field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Ukg Ready 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 DuckDB as a transform step: read synced Parquet exports, aggregate with SQL, and write results back to an operational database.
- 02 Sync SaaS data to Parquet on object storage and query it with DuckDB without standing up a warehouse.
- 03 Create new-hire Employee records in UKG Ready from an ATS or onboarding workflow, including position, cost center, and compensation fields.
- 04 Feed Timesheet Entries and Accruals/Time Off into a data warehouse for labor-cost, overtime, and PTO-liability reporting.
Common sync patterns
Mirror people records into the database
Records maintained in Ukg Ready land as queryable Database files, Schemas, Tables, Views in DuckDB, 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.
Reporting and analytics on current data
Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation, Timesheet Entries replicate into DuckDB where they join operational tables, so headcount, roles, and status reports run on the live state without manual pulls.
What you can sync between DuckDB and Ukg Ready
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.
| DuckDB objects | Ukg Ready objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tables Columnar tables created via SQL; the destination for materialized sync data. | Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. | Tables is specific to DuckDB and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Views SQL views used to shape or filter data for downstream consumers. | Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. | Views is specific to DuckDB and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) Files DuckDB queries in place without loading, common as a sync interchange format. | Timesheet Entries Time-and-attendance punches, hours worked, and breaks; written from external time systems and read into warehouses for labor-cost reporting. | External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) is specific to DuckDB and Timesheet Entries to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Attached databases Additional database files or external systems attached into one session for cross-source queries. | Accruals / Time Off PTO balances, requests, and approver status; read for liability reporting and requests can be created against employee records. | Attached databases is specific to DuckDB and Accruals / Time Off to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Database files Single-file .duckdb databases that jobs read and write directly on disk or object storage. | Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) Earnings and deductions can be imported into pay runs; Employee Payroll Runs (gross, net, taxes) read back for GL posting and analytics. | Database files is specific to DuckDB and Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize tables in sync outputs. | Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. | Schemas is specific to DuckDB and Benefits to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between DuckDB and Ukg Ready
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.
DuckDB Ukg Ready Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls DuckDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or full re-reads.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Ukg Ready through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Ukg Ready DuckDB Sub-second propagation
DetectionUkg Ready notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. UKG Webhooks for select events (employee.created, employee.updated, account/org changes) with HMAC signing.
DeliveryEach detected change is applied to DuckDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
Rate-limit considerations
- DuckDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O.
- Ukg Ready: Rate limits apply over roughly a 1-minute window and return HTTP 429 when exceeded (back off / exponential retry); UKG Webhooks run on a tiered quota with a free tier around 10,000 event notifications per month and 14-day event retention.
