With the HttpContext.Session object, clients have a corresponding memory space in the server's RAM. By using a Session object, we can develop applications that enable a user's entire activity to be remembered in the server. For example, if the user hasn't yet logged in, we can redirect the user to the login page; after successful login, the application can remember all properties of the logged-in user, and let the user navigate through the application. We can clear the Session object, and let the application forget the user. Logout functionality usually clears the Session object.
