Introduction

Sessions can be used to store even complex data for the user just like cookies. Actually sessions will use cookies to store the data, unless you explicitly tell it not to. Sessions can be used easily in ASP.NET with the Session object. Session is use to maintain unique identity of client on server. It is further use to make communication between client and server. ASP.NET 2.0 onward version does not maintain session By Default. If you need to maintain the session the we should trap session state event on serve rby adding Globle.asax file or adding data into HttpSession state. Session execute on server and also reside on server. In Session state data is added on the basis of key. Session default time out is 20 minute but you can change as per your requirements. You can change via Session properties or tage in web.config file. If browser does not support cookies then server generate Cookie less session but We must have to set cookie less session attribute of Session state.

Example : simple example of session in asp .net.
