Myth 1: Does Kombo store data?
Answer
Yes. Kombo stores data to deliver faster API responses, critical features like
filtering, change tracking, deletion tracking, and reliability during upstream
outages. This approach has become the preferred option for companies connecting
enterprise clients with high-volume, fast-moving data.
Why this matters
- Performance: Kombo uses local caches and “updated-after” timestamps to
fetch only what changed since the last sync. Customers avoid building complex
caching logic and reduce infrastructure load by up to 95%.
- Advanced features: Cached data powers real-time webhooks, multi-field
filtering, comprehensive change and deletion tracking, and detailed error
reporting during syncs to identify issues quickly.
- Resilience: If upstream systems like Workday or BambooHR experience
outages, Kombo continues to serve the latest cached data. Applications keep
running while Kombo retries in the background.

Myth 4: Does Kombo support real-time data sync?
Answer
Yes, Kombo combines native webhooks where supported with high-frequency delta
syncs for systems that don’t offer webhooks. Especially for high-volume use
cases, this is the preferred approach by end-customers, as it allows for
processing operations near-real time without introducing a lot of load to the
system.
