I've been asked to write up a document to detail what is involved in turning our session-dependent site into one that uses client variables instead. (The latest issue with the load balancer not maintaining session state on a server apparently was the proverbial straw.)
I know the obvious issue with going from SESSION to CLIENT variables (no complex data type in CLIENT) but is there anything else I should be aware of? Does anyone have a write-up of methods they've used? For instance, which is better: converting out current structures stored in SESSION to WDDX packets stored in CLIENT, or using simple ID fields in CLIENT and running queries in Application.cfm and putting those queries in the REQUEST scope? Hints and tips would be appreciated. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
