Why teams connect Google AlloyDB and Workday

Work with Workday's financial data straight from Google AlloyDB: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Workers, Organizations, Positions, Compensation from Workday into Databases, Schemas, Tables, Views in Google AlloyDB and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against Google AlloyDB, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Workday with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync worker records from Workday into IT and identity systems so hires, transfers, and terminations provision access automatically.
  • 02 Replicate worker, organization, and compensation data into a secured database for people analytics without giving analysts tenant access.
  • 03 Use logical replication to feed AlloyDB changes into warehouses or event pipelines without batch jobs.
  • 04 Consolidate SaaS data into AlloyDB and serve analytics from its columnar engine without a separate OLAP store.

Common sync patterns

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Workday live in Google AlloyDB as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on Google AlloyDB; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Workday.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in Google AlloyDB propagate into Workday, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

What you can sync between Google AlloyDB 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.

Google AlloyDB objects Workday objects How this pairing syncs
Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Custom Reports (RaaS) Tenant-defined reports exposed as web service endpoints, often the practical read surface for syncs. Sequences is specific to Google AlloyDB and Custom Reports (RaaS) to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Replication Slots Logical replication artifacts that back log-based change capture. Workers The central HCM record covering employment, job, and personal data; the anchor of most syncs. Replication Slots is specific to Google AlloyDB and Workers to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Standard PostgreSQL databases within an AlloyDB cluster that syncs connect to. Organizations Supervisory and company hierarchies read to drive routing and reporting in other systems. Databases is specific to Google AlloyDB and Organizations to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces used to separate synced SaaS data from application tables. Positions Job seats synced with recruiting and planning tools. Schemas is specific to Google AlloyDB and Positions to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Primary read/write target for bi-directional sync with CRMs and other systems. Compensation Pay components read into payroll, planning, and equity systems under strict access control. Tables is specific to Google AlloyDB and Compensation to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Curated projections used as read-only sync sources. Time Off and Absence Balances and requests synced with scheduling and workforce tools. Views is specific to Google AlloyDB and Time Off and Absence to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google AlloyDB and Workday

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.

Google AlloyDB Workday Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Google AlloyDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication.

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

Workday Google AlloyDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Workday for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling, including transaction-log criteria on SOAP operations to fetch objects changed since a given moment.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google AlloyDB: No API-style rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance size.
