Question

I heard that ebay uses Java, but I didn’t find jsessionid cookie when I signing in.

Are there alternative techniques exists to track users sessions?
How do you avoid using jsessionid?

Answer 1

There are may, many different options to achieve this. The simplest one I can think of is to store your own cookie and use memcache (or similar) to share the session data between all your servers.

With this solution, you don’t have the problem of your session living on only one server.
