Why teams connect Hibob and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Hibob share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

Hibob is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Documents, Named lists, People (Employees), Employment in Hibob need to exist as queryable Schemas, Sequences, PL/SQL procedures and packages, JSON collections in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 Schemas, Sequences, PL/SQL procedures and packages, JSON collections in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) with Documents, Named lists, People (Employees), Employment in Hibob field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Hibob 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 Run on-prem Oracle and OCI side by side during a cloud migration while keeping both ends writable.
  • 02 Expose ERP or billing data held in OCI to internal tools by syncing selected schemas to a managed Postgres.
  • 03 Push Salaries and Variable Pay from Bob into a payroll provider or warehouse each pay cycle, using the Payroll-permitted service user.
  • 04 Mirror Work data (department, site, manager, title) into an org-chart or reporting warehouse for headcount and structure analysis.

Common sync patterns

Org and structure stay aligned

Groups, departments, managers, and reporting lines from Hibob stay consistent in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud), so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) write onto the matching record in Hibob where those fields are writable, keeping the people system enriched.

Mirror people records into the database

Records maintained in Hibob land as queryable Schemas, Sequences, PL/SQL procedures and packages, JSON collections in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud), so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.

What you can sync between Hibob and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

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.

Hibob objects OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) objects How this pairing syncs
Lifecycle Hire, termination, and leave status changes at /people/{id}/lifecycle; read-only and the source of lifecycle webhook events. JSON collections Document-style storage in the converged engine, synced alongside relational tables Lifecycle is specific to Hibob and JSON collections to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Documents Employee documents accessed under the Docs API; gated behind the Documents permission granted per service user. Partitions Physical table subdivisions relevant when replicating large fact tables Documents is specific to Hibob and Partitions to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Named lists Dropdown option lists such as departments and sites used to resolve field values when mapping People records during sync. Tables The primary sync surface; rows are read and written directly over SQL Named lists is specific to Hibob and Tables to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People (Employees) Core employee records with out-of-the-box and custom fields; read via POST /people/search, created and updated through the /people endpoints. Views Read-only projections used to expose curated subsets to downstream systems People (Employees) is specific to Hibob and Views to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employment Historical table of job terms, contract, and working pattern under /people/{id}/employment; full CRUD, entries keyed by effectiveDate. Materialized views Precomputed result sets sometimes used as stable read sources for replication Employment is specific to Hibob and Materialized views to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Work Reporting line, department, site, and title under /people/{id}/work; drives the org chart and is synced two-way to directories. Schemas Namespace boundaries that scope which objects a sync connection can access Work is specific to Hibob and Schemas to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Hibob and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

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.

Hibob OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Sub-second propagation

DetectionHibob notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire for employee created/updated/deleted, table-entry created/updated, time off, and lifecycle events.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Hibob Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC from redo logs (LogMiner or GoldenGate), or timestamp polling.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Hibob: Rate limits are enforced per service user; violations return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset response headers. The docs list POST /people/search at 50 requests per minute, and bulk /people/search is preferred over per-record reads.
  • OCI Database (Oracle Cloud): Throughput bounded by instance sizing rather than API quotas.

How the Hibob and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) connectors work

Hibob

Integration surface
REST API (the Bob API)
Authentication
Service User credentials over HTTP Basic auth (Base64-encoded serviceUserId:serviceUserToken); permissions granted per data category (People, Payroll, Documents) in Bob admin
Change detection
Webhooks fire for employee created/updated/deleted, table-entry created/updated, time off, and lifecycle events; the employee.updated payload flags which fields changed and Bob recommends an API call for the full record. There is no CDC stream, and deleting a table entry fires no webhook (Bob has no table-entry deletion event).
