# llldap > [!IMPORTANT] > You may be looking for [lldap](https://github.com/lldap/lldap) instead, a more mature solution with a different feature set. Is your *Lightweight Directory Access Protocol* server too heavy and too cumbersome? If your lldap not light enough or are you looking for a solution which supports [virtualhosts](https://github.com/lldap/lldap/issues/1196#issuecomment-3036760574) and [multiple-value attributes](https://github.com/lldap/lldap/issues/1133) such as mail aliases? **llldap might be just for you!*** > [!WARNING] > This is not production-ready yet. ## Comparison to lldap Compared to lldap, llldap: - does not use an SQLite database, but simple text files - does not use GraphQL to build an API, and therefore does not require custom logic in the client (JS/WASM) - supports virtualhosts out-of-the-box - supports mailalias with multiple values in search queries ## Potential future features We may explore in the future: - hierarchical groups - fine-grained permissions (RBAC) - running with different async runtimes - implying base DN from HTTP HOST header (to have `auth.a.localhost` and `auth.b.localhost` where users can login without adding the domain part) - making the core logic reusable as a library for custom LDAP behavior - per-user/domain data retention policies to keep logs of login attempts - per-domain admins ## License [GNU AGPL v3](LICENSE)
