I would like to know what you guys think is the best way to access data:
Asp.Net session vs. Database Queries.
In our application we are using asp.net tree view to display hierarchical
data and when user clicks on particular node it brings up totally different
page with all the asp.net controls dynamically generated.
Example:
Tree view Control is as follow:
Student1
Student2
Student3
Student4
.......
......
.....
.....
Student 75
Now I have 2 options:
1) Now when user click on any node (i.e. Node Student2) another page will be
displayed and all the data related to that will be accesses from SQL server
using SQL Queries
2) OR Should all the data be accessed initially loaded into Session
Variable before building Tree View and when user access Node Student 2, just
get it from Session Variable.
Thanks

You can use SQL Server as a state server, which you set that up through the
Web.config, you set up SQL server to be a state server with the .Net Utility
that does configuration. Then you can make a serialized Session object to
hold you session object in session with the data or variables serialized and
saved and retrieved to/from SQL Server. .Net will keep track and take care
of what needs to be done by itself to keep all session state. All you do is
set and get the object.
Look it up use Google and find out how to keep session state using SQL
server as a state server.
use datbase queries it will faster baecause . when u use session object u
have to create session for every student. and this will seprate for every
user . so memory use at sever will increase which will degrade ur performace.
so better to use dbdbase query. it may happen a user it wisting ur site and
only clicking one node so ur query will fired only once. but when u use
seesion it will create each variable for every user.
for better performace u can also use cahing .

You should consider (if Possible) getting all the data for a particular
user's session and store it in Session State. Unless the amount of data that
is needed is very large, this is the most efficient way of handling a
multiuser application and avoids having to constantly query the database for
what may be the same data. If you have data that is the same across multiple
users, you can save memory by storing that data in either Cache or
Application state.
Also, consider asking questions like this in the asp.net newsgroup as it is
not really a C# language related question.

The issue here, as I read it, is whether to store junk into Session, not how
to do session state. Regardless of whether you are using SQL Server or State
Server (or local for that matter), throwing items into session is not
generally the wisest method. For Prefetch, session is really not a good
option, as you are loading up tons of objects you will never use. One could
prefetch into ViewState, but if there are lots of students on a page, you
get a very heavy page. Once again, for information you most likely will not
use (maybe one or two records). With ViewState, you might get away with it
on a fast connection, but there is really no need.
Better to fetch from your persistant data store as needed.

As long as that is the information that is grabbed, sure. As I read this, he
was talking about prefetching the entire list of students when the initial
page was hit and storing that in session. Not a wise idea.

Hey! Is there some sort of limit on how much one could store in a

Is it advisable to store a LOT of data in the session when a user logs

Does this depend somehow on how many sessions are going on at once?
Any input would be appreciated, thanks!

I've read (and read!) that you shouldn't store objects in Session variables.
I've read these reasons:
- The object takes up memory that may not be freed until the session times
out. Better to create the object only when you actually use it.
- Causes poor performance because the thread that created the object has to
service all requests for it.

Hi!
We have a problem which is correlated to web farms and session handling and
are thinking of what solution to choose.
Our setup is with a web farm, one ldap server and a database cluster.
The web farm is doing searches which are quite performance expensive against
the ldap server, taking up to 10 or 15 seconds. The searches are displayed
to the client in a datagrid, which then may have to be paged.
