About 12 years ago, I wrote a system called msession for PHP that was basically a high-speed cache for sessions. I have been using it for PHP sites ever since. The one thing I've never liked about tomcat is sticky sessions. It doesn't scale well enough. With gig ethernet, a shared network based caching system is probably the best way to go.

Also, it would be good if the format of the session data could be used by other platforms, i.e. PHP and Tomcat could share sessions.

Is anyone actively working on the session management of tomcat?

Hello, Thanks in advance for your help.

I would like to know if anyone is currently modifying, has modified,
or plans to modify Tomcat 6.0.20 to store/read sessions directly in
Memcached + MySQL to enable session persistence with round-robin and
without sticky sessions?

If so would you be so kind as to point me in the right direction?

Our top level design requirement is 'no sticky sessions' + 'round
robin' + 'MySQL or Amazon SimpleDB'

After getting this solution working I would like to donate the code to
the Tomcat project. It will be useful for those wishing to deploy
Tomcat + Amazon EC2 + Amazon Elastic Load Balancer.

Thank you,
Anthony
