Why teams connect OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Workday

Work with Workday's financial data straight from OCI Database (Oracle Cloud): 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 Journal Entries, Custom Reports (RaaS), Workers, Organizations from Workday into JSON collections, Partitions, Tables, Views in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against OCI Database (Oracle Cloud), 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 Keep supervisory-organization hierarchies aligned with planning and workforce tools that model the same structure.
  • 02 Sync worker records from Workday into IT and identity systems so hires, transfers, and terminations provision access automatically.
  • 03 Replicate operational tables from OCI to an analytics warehouse with log-based CDC instead of nightly batch dumps.
  • 04 Run on-prem Oracle and OCI side by side during a cloud migration while keeping both ends writable.

Common sync patterns

React to financial events

Changes in Workday appear in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Workday live in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud); Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Workday.

What you can sync between OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) objects Workday objects How this pairing syncs
Partitions Physical table subdivisions relevant when replicating large fact tables Payroll Results Completed pay data exported to finance and benefits systems. Partitions is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Payroll Results to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync surface; rows are read and written directly over SQL Suppliers Workday Financials vendor records aligned with procurement tools. Tables is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Suppliers to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used to expose curated subsets to downstream systems Customers and Invoices Financials receivables objects synced for billing visibility where Workday Financials is used. Views is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Customers and Invoices to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Precomputed result sets sometimes used as stable read sources for replication Journal Entries Accounting entries imported from external subledgers into Workday Financials. Materialized views is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Journal Entries to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespace boundaries that scope which objects a sync connection can access Custom Reports (RaaS) Tenant-defined reports exposed as web service endpoints, often the practical read surface for syncs. Schemas is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Custom Reports (RaaS) to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences Key generators that matter when writing new rows from external systems Workers The central HCM record covering employment, job, and personal data; the anchor of most syncs. Sequences is specific to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Workers to Workday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Workday 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 Workday through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Workday OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • OCI Database (Oracle Cloud): Throughput bounded by instance sizing rather than API quotas.
