Lingk Integration & Migration Platform (Rhythm)
Enterprise Data Pipelines Built for SIS and ERP Modernization
Lingk’s Integration Platform combines low-code orchestration, Apache Spark-based data pipelines, automated data transformation, and AI-assisted integration design to support complex data flows for Colleague and Workday.
Our platform enables:
High-volume student and HR data transformation
Secure API and event-based integrations
Parallel system synchronization during phased migrations
Data validation, reconciliation, and audit tracking
Modern cloud-native architecture without vendor lock-in
Lingk supports delivery using our platform or your existing iPaaS (Workday Studio, Boomi, MuleSoft, Workato, etc.), ensuring flexibility within your enterprise architecture strategy.
Migration Services
Structured, Low-Risk SIS Data Migration
Migrating from Ellucian Colleague to Workday Student requires careful planning across data mapping, governance, sequencing, and institutional change management. Lingk provides structured migration services covering:
Data discovery and source system analysis
Colleague data extraction and archival strategy
Field-level mapping from Colleague to Workday data models
Historical data migration and validation
Parallel system testing and reconciliation
Go-live support and post-migration stabilization
We help institutions avoid common migration pitfalls such as incomplete historical records, misaligned academic structures, payroll discrepancies, and reporting disruptions.
Our approach ensures institutional continuity while modernizing core systems.
Integration Services
Connecting SIS, HR, and Finance Systems Across the Enterprise
Many institutions operate Colleague for SIS while deploying Workday for HCM or Finance. Others adopt Workday Student in phases, requiring long-term coexistence with Colleague.
Lingk designs and manages integrations including:
Student to HR data synchronization
Faculty and employee provisioning
Financial aid and billing data exchange
Payroll and position management alignment
Chart of accounts and general ledger integrations
Identity management and downstream system synchronization
We reduce integration backlogs, eliminate brittle flat-file transfers, and replace manual processes with automated, monitored, and scalable integrations.

1. Colleague to Workday Student Replacement
Full SIS migration with data transformation, validation, archival, and structured cutover planning.
2. Colleague ERP with Workday HCM
