Why teams connect Dynamo DB and Jobvite

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: Dynamo DB and Jobvite share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

Jobvite is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. Dynamo DB is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: New Hire, Employee, Attachment, Offer in Jobvite need to exist as queryable DynamoDB Streams, Global Tables, Tables, Items in Dynamo DB 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 DynamoDB Streams, Global Tables, Tables, Items in Dynamo DB with New Hire, Employee, Attachment, Offer in Jobvite field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Jobvite 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 Consolidate multi-region Global Tables data into a single reporting store.
  • 02 Replace ad-hoc export scripts with continuous sync driven by DynamoDB Streams.
  • 03 Sync Employee roster data into Jobvite with POST /employee to power employee-referral matching and internal-mobility postings.
  • 04 Two-way sync Candidate records and their Workflow Status between Jobvite and a Postgres database so recruiting-ops teams query and update pipeline data in SQL.

Common sync patterns

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

New Hire, Employee, Attachment, Offer replicate into Dynamo DB where they join operational tables, so headcount, roles, and status reports run on the live state without manual pulls.

Org and structure stay aligned

Groups, departments, managers, and reporting lines from Jobvite stay consistent in Dynamo DB, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

What you can sync between Dynamo DB 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.

Dynamo DB objects Jobvite objects How this pairing syncs
Partition and Sort Keys The primary key pair used as the match key for bi-directional sync. Application Links a candidate to one requisition with its workflow state; read for pipeline reporting and status written back through the candidate update call. Partition and Sort Keys is specific to Dynamo DB and Application to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global Secondary Indexes Alternate access paths used when sync queries filter on non-key attributes. Workflow Status The pipeline stage per application (Screen, Interview, Offer, Hired); updated through POST /candidate/updateCandidates to advance records. Global Secondary Indexes is specific to Dynamo DB and Workflow Status to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records consumed for incremental sync. New Hire Hired-candidate records surfaced in the candidate feed and via the candidate hired webhook; commonly written into an HRIS or onboarding tool. DynamoDB Streams is specific to Dynamo DB and New Hire to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global Tables Multi-region replicas relevant when syncs must read from a specific region. Employee Employee roster pushed through POST /employee (Onboard sync), used for referral matching and internal-mobility job postings. Global Tables is specific to Dynamo DB and Employee to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The top-level containers a sync targets; each table is addressed independently. Attachment Resumes, cover letters, and files attached to a candidate; synced out to object storage or a document management system. Tables is specific to Dynamo DB and Attachment to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Schemaless records keyed by partition (and optional sort) key, mapped to rows or SaaS objects in syncs. Offer Offer state tied to an application (extended, accepted, declined); read out for offer-acceptance reporting and written to downstream comp or HR systems. Items is specific to Dynamo DB and Offer to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Dynamo DB 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.

Dynamo DB Jobvite Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Dynamo DB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Item-level change streams via DynamoDB Streams or Kinesis Data Streams integration.

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Dynamo DB: Throughput is governed by the table's provisioned or on-demand capacity mode.
  • 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.
