What is the difference bitween cookies and sessions/

Answer Posted / priyanka agrawal

cookies are stored in the user's browser, and sessions are
not. A cookie can keep information in the user's browser
until deleted.But Sessions are popularly used, as the there
is a chance of your cookies getting blocked if the user
browser security setting is set high.

If you set the variable to "sessions", then user activity
will be tracked using browser sessions, and your users will
have to log in each time they re-open their browser.

The Key difference would be cookies are stored in your hard
disk whereas a session aren't stored in your hard disk.
Sessions are basically like tokens, which are generated at
authentication. A session is available as long as the
browser is opened.
