ASP.NET

Question 1

When an ASP.NET app is hosted on a web farm using a load balancer, how is the session state handled?

Answer 1

ASP.NET session state enables you to store and retrieve values for a user as the user navigates ASP.NET pages in a Web application.

Question 2

What is a session?

Answer 2

Sessions are a state management technique.

Since HTTP is a stateless protocol, some method needs to be used to persist the state of the web application.

A session refers to the storing and retrieval of client data (to the web server) that comes from the same browser during a limited time period.
