Redis for HTTP Session caching

[kavan somanna]

Hi,

We have a requirement to cache HTTP session using a caching solution for a JAVA based application, i wanted to know if Redis supports the same? If 'Yes' can you point me to any documentation?

Thanks,

Som

Redis functions as a nice cache, but it does not have any built-in features specific to HTTP sessions.  A Java class/module would need to do that.

A google search for:

java redis "http session"

shows a number of blogs and Q&A sites describing how to use Spring to store session data in Redis.

Hi Som,

if you use Spring, then you can try Spring Session [1]. It supports also other backends. If not, well, then you can try session manager implementation for your servlet container. For Tomcat see memcached session manager [2]. It supports redis too [3].

Best regards,
Anton
