Answer Posted / sachin

Session tracking is a mechanism that servlets use to
maintain state about a series of requests from the same
user (that is, requests originating from the same browser)
across some period of time.

Cookies are a mechanism that a servlet uses to have clients
hold a small amount of state-information associated with
the user. Servlets can use the information in a cookie as
the user enters a site (as a low-security user sign-on, for
example), as the user navigates around a site (as a
repository of user preferences for example), or both.
