Why teams connect MariaDB and Smartrecruiters

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

Smartrecruiters is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. MariaDB is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Jobs, Job Postings, Interviews, Offers in Smartrecruiters need to exist as queryable Tables, Views, Columns, Primary and Unique Keys in MariaDB 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 Tables, Views, Columns, Primary and Unique Keys in MariaDB with Jobs, Job Postings, Interviews, Offers in Smartrecruiters field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Smartrecruiters 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 Two-way sync between a MariaDB application database and a CRM so both systems hold the same customer records
  • 02 Replicate ERP or billing master data into MariaDB databases that power customer-facing applications
  • 03 Stream Jobs and Job Postings into a reporting database for requisition, funnel, and time-to-fill dashboards.
  • 04 Export Interviews and Offers to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load, offer-acceptance rates, and hiring outcomes.

Common sync patterns

Org and structure stay aligned

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

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in MariaDB write onto the matching record in Smartrecruiters where those fields are writable, keeping the people system enriched.

Mirror people records into the database

Records maintained in Smartrecruiters land as queryable Tables, Views, Columns, Primary and Unique Keys in MariaDB, so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.

What you can sync between MariaDB and Smartrecruiters

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.

MariaDB objects Smartrecruiters objects How this pairing syncs
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Interviews Interview types, timeslots, templates, and scheduled interviews with interviewers and times; created, updated, and read for scheduling and interviewer-load analytics. Databases (Schemas) is specific to MariaDB and Interviews to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status, custom offer fields, and offer documents; readable and writable, commonly synced to an HRIS on hire (documents endpoint limited to 2 requests/sec). Tables is specific to MariaDB and Offers to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Users Company users (recruiters, hiring managers) with roles, access groups, and activation state; read and written via the User Management API. Views is specific to MariaDB and Users to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Approvals Approval requests for jobs and offers; requests can be created, retrieved as pending, commented on, and approved or rejected via the Approvals API. Columns is specific to MariaDB and Approvals to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, attachments, custom properties, and consent; created, updated, and searched via the Candidates API, often populated from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Primary and Unique Keys is specific to MariaDB and Candidates to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
System-Versioned Tables Temporal tables that retain row history natively, useful for auditing synced changes. Applications Links a Candidate to a Job and carries the current hiring status and source; created and advanced through statuses (screening, interview, offer, hired, rejected) via the Application API. System-Versioned Tables is specific to MariaDB and Applications to Smartrecruiters — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MariaDB and Smartrecruiters

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.

MariaDB Smartrecruiters Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MariaDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing.

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

Smartrecruiters MariaDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionSmartrecruiters notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks API — subscribe to events (new application, candidate updated, status changed) delivered with a signing secret and retrievable callback logs.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • MariaDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources.
  • Smartrecruiters: Per API credential: most endpoints allow up to 10 requests/sec (job publication and offer documents 2/sec), plus a concurrency limiter of up to 8 simultaneous requests (GET /candidates capped at 1). Exceeding returns 429; responses carry X-RateLimit-Limit/Remaining and concurrent-limit headers.
