Differences of ASP and ASP.NET Session State

Answer:

ASP:

1)ASP 's Session State was stored in the same process that hosts ASP.

2)for different web servers, each Web server had its own session state.

There was a problem in sharing session states in a web farm situation.

3)No support for Cookieless sessions.

4)No web.config files for configuring the session state.

ASP.NET:

1)ASP.NET 's Session State is stored in the same process that hosts ASP.net(default)
It can also be stored out of process in an sql server database or a state server

2)different web servers can easily share the session state using the appropriate

configurations.

3)Supports Cookieless sessions.(<sessionState cookieless=true/>) in web.config file.

SessionId is visible in the browser.

4)uses web.config files for configuring the seesion state.
