Answer Posted / jeet
1. Session Stored data at server and session_id (PHPSESSID)
at client side(browser). Cookies stored data at client
side(browser) and each time the same computer requests a
page, it will send the cookie too.
2. Sessions are more secured than cookies as data stored at
server side.
3. Sessions can not be blocked by user from browser while
cookies can be.
4. For login Sessions fail as data is served by multiple
servers ( absence of load balancing ) while cookies do not
as stored at cliet.
5. Sessions amount of data to be stored is NOT LIMITED.
Cookies amount of data to be stored is LIMITED.
6. Sessions can store OBJECTS. Cookies can only store STRINGS.
