Very interesting question , here are the differences between caching and session Cache does not require cookies , session can be cookie or cookieless You can specify different options to set cache data expiry, you can specify only the timeout for session Cache has in-build algorithm for monitoring /scavenge cache data , session does not follow any such algorithm ( if I am not working) Cache is not aware of any user session and resides in ASP.NET worker process and part of HttpContext HTH Thanx Anand
