Why teams connect TimescaleDB and Ukg Ready

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: TimescaleDB 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. TimescaleDB is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Cost Centers / Groups, Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions in Ukg Ready need to exist as queryable Continuous Aggregates, Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas in TimescaleDB 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 Continuous Aggregates, Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas in TimescaleDB with Cost Centers / Groups, Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions 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 Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
  • 02 Replicate subscription and billing events from operational Postgres tables into Timescale hypertables for time-series analysis.
  • 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

Org and structure stay aligned

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

Computed and operational fields flow back

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

Mirror people records into the database

Records maintained in Ukg Ready land as queryable Continuous Aggregates, Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas in TimescaleDB, so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.

What you can sync between TimescaleDB 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.

TimescaleDB objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Chunks is specific to TimescaleDB and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems. Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. Continuous Aggregates is specific to TimescaleDB and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data. Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Regular PostgreSQL Tables is specific to TimescaleDB and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers. Timesheet Entries Time-and-attendance punches, hours worked, and breaks; written from external time systems and read into warehouses for labor-cost reporting. Views is specific to TimescaleDB and Timesheet Entries to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment. Accruals / Time Off PTO balances, requests, and approver status; read for liability reporting and requests can be created against employee records. Schemas is specific to TimescaleDB and Accruals / Time Off to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs. 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. Hypertables is specific to TimescaleDB and Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between TimescaleDB 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.

TimescaleDB Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in TimescaleDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must.

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • TimescaleDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
  • 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.
