Abstract
A method, system, and computer program product for maintaining a web session data spanning multiple servers. A web session is initiated for a web-based application via a client browser. A unique session key is generated for the web session and the web-based application. The session key is stored in the client browser. A web session page-level object is initialized. Session data is then loaded into a memory-mapped cache. Requests for session data from the client browser are received and responded to via a plurality of servers. The modified session data generated during the session is stored into a session database. The web session object is then flushed at the end of the session.
