LitwareHR is a fictitious HR application released in February 2007 as part of Microsoft's SaaS architecture guidance. Aimed at software architects and developers, the goal of LitwareHR is twofold:
 * To be the embodiment of the architectural guidance described in Microsoft's whitepapers
 * To demonstrate how the Microsoft platform is used in the creation of SaaS solutions

This reference implementation application provides recruitment management software delivered as a service. The important aspect is not what the application does but how it is implemented.

Implementation
LitwareHR is implemented as a Single Instance Multi Tenant application, which means that all its customers (or tenants) share the same instance of the application including a single database. Showing how to be multi tenant efficient as well as allowing tenant specific customization in a single instance environment is one of the key objectives of LitwareHR.
