Hi,

I have a concern about using Sessions Variables
and the behavior of Stateful Session Bean(EJB) when
proxy servers are used.

A session assumes you're always coming and going
to the same machine and in a web farm the load
balancer means that you have only a one in N chances
of returning to the same machine - where N is the
number of web servers.

While you can set the sticky bit on most load
balancers
it's not a very efficient solution as it takes away
one of the biggest advantages of using a web farm in
the first place and inevitably you end up kicking off
your user's when you reboot rather than allowing these
user's to be picked up by one of the other servers.

So how does Weblogic handle Load Balancing in proxy
servers when Session Variables and Stateful Session
Bean are used.

Thanks
