Session or...?

Hi all,

I have an assignment due (asp.net in c#) that requires us to think of a
large-scale online stores allowing for thousands of users at a time to
be logged in, creating accounts and so on. We have been told to choose
either sessions and / or databases to hold necessary information but
I'm a bit stuck (and very interested) in how it would really work! Can
anyone point me in the right direction here? A web reference, a good
example online or something please? I don't think this course is very
indepth, so forgive me for the silly questions...I just don't see how
using a session on one or even a few servers would be the best thing to
do, nor would calling and somehow storing somewhere else (in the
session too???) all the user's account information when we're talking
about thousands of users at a time - wouldn't this clog up the memory,
speed or whatever else of the web server(s)? How is it really done (in
asp.net and c# of course!)?

Many thanks in advance for any guidance :)
Lara

Well Guys, Here is a very strange trouble. When more than one users request tto same page at the same time then our session gets conflicted. Moreover I printed my SessionID, strangely but true I got the exact same SessionID as of other users's. Well I guess nothing wrong with my code, do I need to set any property in Web.Config file??

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
