Task overview: Managing HTTP sessions
Overview
IBM WebSphere Application Server provides a service for managing
HTTP sessions: Session Manager. The key activities for session management
are summarized below.
Before you begin these steps, make sure you are familiar
with the programming model for accessing HTTP session support in the applications
following the Servlet 2.4 API.
Procedure
- Plan your approach to session
management, which could include session
tracking, session
recovery, and session
clustering.
- Create or modify your own applications to use session support to
maintain sessions on behalf of Web applications.
- Assemble your application.
- Deploy your application.
- Ensure the administrator appropriately configures session management in the administrative domain.
- Adjust configuration
settings and perform other tuning
activities for optimal use of sessions in your environment.
