Session management is a fundamental concept in the world of web applications and online interactions. At its core, session management is the process of securely tracking a user's interactions with an application over a period of time. This is essential because the primary protocol of the web, HTTP, is stateless, meaning each request from a user is treated as an independent event. Session management provides the "memory" that applications need to offer personalized and continuous experiences.
