Why teams connect Greenplum and Ukg Pro

Land the people and organization records from Ukg Pro in Greenplum as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Ukg Pro can use them.

Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Ukg Pro is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in Greenplum next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Employee (Person Details), Employment Details, Job / Position History, Compensation Details from Ukg Pro into tables in Greenplum continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Greenplum, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Ukg Pro where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.

Common use cases

  • 01 Publish segments, scores, and aggregates computed in Greenplum back into business tools where teams act on them.
  • 02 Keep Greenplum and a cloud warehouse in sync during a migration so both platforms serve consistent data.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Employee and Job Details (position, department, supervisor, location, cost center) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current worker and org data in SQL while HR edits in UKG Pro.
  • 04 Push new hires (Employee, Employment, Job) into an ERP, IdP, or app database when onboarding completes so account, cost-center, and payroll setup fire on hire instead of manual report exports.

Common sync patterns

Headcount and cost joined with everything else

Analysts combine Ukg Pro's workforce records with finance, product, or operational data already in Greenplum for reporting the HR system cannot produce on its own.

Fresh data instead of last night's load

Because changes stream continuously, reports query current workforce data rather than waiting for an overnight load window to finish.

Queryable history for planning and audit

A continuously synced copy in Greenplum gives you a durable, queryable record of how Ukg Pro's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

What you can sync between Greenplum 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.

Greenplum objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Tables is specific to Greenplum and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Large tables are commonly partitioned by date, which shapes incremental reads. 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. Partitions is specific to Greenplum and Compensation Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used to shape data before syncing it out. 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. Views is specific to Greenplum and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. External tables is specific to Greenplum and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows Read and written by key; distribution keys determine where rows live. 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. Rows is specific to Greenplum and Configuration Setup (Code Tables) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Time & Attendance (UTA) Timekeeping and worked-hours data exposed by the UTA services; synced into scheduling, payroll, or workforce-analytics databases. Databases is specific to Greenplum and Time & Attendance (UTA) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Greenplum 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.

Greenplum Ukg Pro Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Greenplum for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key-based cursors.

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

Ukg Pro Greenplum Sub-second propagation

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Greenplum: Bounded by cluster resources and concurrency settings rather than an API quota.
  • 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.

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.
