HTTP Session Management Module for AppServers

You implement session caching with the HTTP Session Management Module for AppServers with a special filter, defined in the web.xml, which is configured to intercept and wrap all requests.

You can use this HTTP module with a variety of application servers. Wrapping each request allows the interception of getSession() calls to be handled by Geode instead of the native container. This approach is a generic solution, which is supported by any container that implements the Servlet 3.1 specification.

• Setting Up the HTTP Module for AppServers

  To use the module, you need to modify your application’s web.xml files. Configuration is slightly different depending on the topology you are setting up.

• Changing the Default Geode Configuration in the AppServers Module

  By default, the AppServers module will run Geode automatically with preconfigured settings. You can change these Geode settings.
