Hi Michel,
Mike did indeed mention Coherence*Web. However, that requires a more than basic license model. In addition: is Coherence*Web meant just for session state sharing between cluster nodes (as well as fast serialization for single node systems) or is it also intended as a mechanism to share the session state between different web application – as I am looking for in this post?

Of course Coherence and any other Data Grid (or even any Static HashMap in the JVM for single node systems) can be used to store, retrieve and therefore share data – however, then the burden of managing some data in the session and other data on the grid is on the developer. With the approach described in this article, the session state is just shared without additional overhead.

Hi Lucas Did Mike not talked about Coherence*Web? This gives you an even more reliable and robust session sharing. You can use some coherence specific context parameter settings like enable session context, session length and caching possibilities.
