<p>This submodule of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session.html">mod_session</a></code> provides support for the
storage of user sessions on the remote browser within HTTP cookies.</p>
-
+
<p>Using cookies to store a session removes the need for the server or
a group of servers to store the session locally, or collaborate to share
a session, and can be useful for high traffic environments where a
server based session might be too resource intensive.</p>
-
+
<p>If session privacy is required, the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session_crypto.html">mod_session_crypto</a></code>
module can be used to encrypt the contents of the session before writing
the session to the client.</p>
-
+
<p>For more details on the session interface, see the documentation for
the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_session.html">mod_session</a></code> module.</p>
