Why teams connect Google Cloud Spanner and Ukg Ready

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: Google Cloud Spanner 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. Google Cloud Spanner is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation in Ukg Ready need to exist as queryable Rows, Interleaved tables, Secondary indexes, Change streams in Google Cloud Spanner 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 Rows, Interleaved tables, Secondary indexes, Change streams in Google Cloud Spanner with Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation 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 change streams to feed near-real-time copies of operational tables into an analytics warehouse.
  • 02 Run a two-way sync between Spanner and a SaaS tool so edits made by ops teams land back in the application database.
  • 03 Mirror Cost Centers/Groups and Compensation into finance and planning systems for headcount and budget reconciliation.
  • 04 Two-way sync Employees and Employment/Position records with an operational Postgres database so internal apps and IT provisioning read job title, department, and status in SQL while HR edits in UKG Ready.

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

Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation replicate into Google Cloud Spanner 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 Ukg Ready stay consistent in Google Cloud Spanner, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Spanner 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.

Google Cloud Spanner objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Secondary indexes Used to make incremental read queries efficient on non-key columns. 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. Secondary indexes is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Change streams Capture inserts, updates, and deletes for log-style change data capture. Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. Change streams is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Benefits to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections useful for shaping data before it leaves Spanner. Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Views is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Cost Centers / Groups to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Top-level containers that scope schema and sync configuration. Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Databases is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Reports (Report-as-a-Service) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables mapped one-to-one to sync targets. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Tables is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows The unit of read and write in each sync cycle, keyed by primary key. Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. Rows is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Cloud Spanner 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.

Google Cloud Spanner Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Google Cloud Spanner are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Change streams (log-style CDC), or timestamp-based polling queries.

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

Ukg Ready Google Cloud Spanner 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 Google Cloud Spanner as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Cloud Spanner: Throughput is bounded by the instance's provisioned compute capacity rather than a fixed API quota.
  • 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.
