A brief difference between Session and Cookies in asp.net
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / uday kumar vuriti
We use both Session and Cookies to maintain state between
the page postbacks. We can achieve state management using 2
ways.
1. Client Side Technique (using hidden fields, query string,
view state and Cookies)
2. Server Side Technique (using Session and Application)
Cookies will store data in client side either in browser or
in system hard disk.
Session will allocates memory in the web server and for
every user server will allocates memory. So Session is per
user based.
