Alternative for sessions in mvc4

hi,

you mean to say caching type data in which there is common data for every user?

if yes than refer my article
http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/ff2f08/caching-in-mvc-application-with-entity-framework-using-query/

hope this will help you.

Yes you are right in that case.

Hi Anupam.

I agree with you. But if you are not concerned with the client side, its best to use cookies than application objects for storing information pertaining to a single user.

Hi Laxman,

I would not suggest that. B'coz cookies and cache are client side. and session stores data on server. So session cannt be replaced by cookies or cache.

Hi Sasi, 

You can use application level variables called global variables

Hi Sasi,

Please check the code in the link http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19128507/using-cookie-in-asp-net-mvc-4 for usage of cookies.

Cookies stores the value in your personal computer. and Sessions are stored in memory of the server.

Hi,

Please try using caches or cookies if you dont want session.
