WebSphere Application Server

WebSphere Application Server Session Management Session support allows a Web application developer to maintain state information across multiple user visits to the application.  We will cover below points 1. HTTP session management 2. Session manager configuration 3. Session identifiers 4. Local sessions 5. General properties for session management 6. Session affinity 7. Persistent session management 1.HTTP session management: When an HTTP client interacts with a servlet, the state information associated with a series of client requests is represented as an HTTP session and identified by a session ID. Session management is responsible for managing HTTP sessions, providing storage for session data, allocating session IDs, and tracking the session ID associated with each client request through the use of cookies or URL rewriting techniques. 2.Session manager configuration: Session management in WebSphere Application Server can be defined at the fo...

Understanding SSL: There are many ways to go about creating an SSL connection between servers,  and the best one for your situation will depend upon the type of protocol you're planning to tunnel through it. As you probably know, the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) allows the use of encryption to protect data sent via a TCP/IP connection. The most commonly used implementation of SSL is the HTTPS protocol: a secure encrypted alternative to HTTP for transferring information over the Web. Secure Sockets Layer ( SSL ) is a computer networking protocol for securing connections between network application clients and servers over an insecure network, such as the internet. Due to numerous protocol and implementation flaws and vulnerabilities, SSL was deprecated for use on the internet by the Internet Engineering Task Force ( IETF ) in 2015 and has been replaced by the Transport Layer Security ( TLS ) protocol. While TLS and SSL are not interoperable, TLS is backwards-compa...
