Why teams connect Ukg Pro and YugabyteDB

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

Ukg Pro is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. YugabyteDB is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Employee (Person Details), Employment Details, Job / Position History, Compensation Details in Ukg Pro need to exist as queryable Databases and Keyspaces, Tables, Indexes, Materialized Views in YugabyteDB 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 Databases and Keyspaces, Tables, Indexes, Materialized Views in YugabyteDB with Employee (Person Details), Employment Details, Job / Position History, Compensation Details in Ukg Pro field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Ukg Pro 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 Consolidate data from regional YugabyteDB clusters into one reporting store.
  • 02 Run log-based CDC from YugabyteDB tables into a warehouse for analytics without batch dumps.
  • 03 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.
  • 04 Replicate Compensation and pay-statement / earnings history into a warehouse for headcount, labor-cost, and payroll reporting without manual BI exports.

Common sync patterns

Mirror people records into the database

Records maintained in Ukg Pro land as queryable Databases and Keyspaces, Tables, Indexes, Materialized Views in YugabyteDB, so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.

One directory of record

When a person record is added, changed, or deactivated in either system, the matching row in the other stays current, ending dual maintenance.

Reporting and analytics on current data

Employee (Person Details), Employment Details, Job / Position History, Compensation Details replicate into YugabyteDB where they join operational tables, so headcount, roles, and status reports run on the live state without manual pulls.

What you can sync between Ukg Pro and YugabyteDB

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.

Ukg Pro objects YugabyteDB objects How this pairing syncs
Employee (Person Details) Core worker record with demographics and identifiers; read by listing employee IDs then fetching each profile, and created on hire via the personnel/onboarding endpoints. Databases and Keyspaces Top-level containers for the YSQL (Postgres-style) and YCQL (Cassandra-style) APIs respectively. Employee (Person Details) is specific to Ukg Pro and Databases and Keyspaces to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Tables Distributed SQL tables split into tablets; the primary read and write targets. Employment Details is specific to Ukg Pro and Tables to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Indexes Global secondary indexes maintained transactionally alongside table writes. Job / Position History is specific to Ukg Pro and Indexes to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Materialized Views Precomputed query results available in YSQL for read-side shaping. Compensation Details is specific to Ukg Pro and Materialized Views to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Schemas Postgres-style namespaces in YSQL used to organize synced data. Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) is specific to Ukg Pro and Schemas to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Sequences ID generation objects relevant when syncing writes into YSQL tables. Terminations is specific to Ukg Pro and Sequences to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ukg Pro and YugabyteDB

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.

Ukg Pro YugabyteDB Sub-second propagation

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

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

YugabyteDB Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in YugabyteDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Native CDC from the write-ahead log via PostgreSQL logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • YugabyteDB: No API rate limits; throughput scales with cluster nodes and tablet distribution.

How the Ukg Pro and YugabyteDB connectors work

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.
