Why teams connect Scaleway Postgres and Workday

Work with Workday's financial data straight from Scaleway Postgres: 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 Positions, Compensation, Time Off and Absence, Payroll Results from Workday into Materialized views, Schemas, Sequences, Columns in Scaleway Postgres and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against Scaleway Postgres, 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

  • Replicate worker, organization, and compensation data into a secured database for people analytics without giving analysts tenant access.
  • Push completed payroll results into a finance system or data warehouse each pay cycle.
  • Back internal tools with the same Postgres instance while Stacksync keeps it consistent with external systems
  • Keep an EU-hosted Postgres as the system of record while distributing data to US-hosted SaaS applications

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on Scaleway Postgres; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Workday.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in Scaleway Postgres propagate into Workday, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Workday appear in Scaleway Postgres as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

What you can sync between Scaleway Postgres 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.

Scaleway Postgres objects Workday objects
Tables Primary sync unit; each table maps to an object or table on the other side of the sync. Time Off and Absence Balances and requests synced with scheduling and workforce tools.
Views Read-only sources for shaping data before it leaves the database. Payroll Results Completed pay data exported to finance and benefits systems.
Materialized views Precomputed result sets that can be read on a schedule for downstream syncs. Suppliers Workday Financials vendor records aligned with procurement tools.
Schemas Namespace tables so multiple applications or environments can be synced selectively. Customers and Invoices Financials receivables objects synced for billing visibility where Workday Financials is used.
Sequences Generate primary keys; sync tooling must respect them when writing rows. Journal Entries Accounting entries imported from external subledgers into Workday Financials.
Columns Postgres-native types, including JSONB and arrays, are mapped to fields in the paired system. Custom Reports (RaaS) Tenant-defined reports exposed as web service endpoints, often the practical read surface for syncs.
