Web is Stateless, which means a new instance of the web
page class is re-created each time the page is posted to
the server. As we all know HTTP is a stateless protocol, it
can't hold the client information on page. If user inserts
some information, and move to the next page, that data will
be lost and user would not able to retrieve the
information. So what we need? we need to store information.
Session provides that facility to store information on
server memory. It can support any type of object to store
along with our custom object. For every client Session data
store separately, means session data is stored as per
client basis.

Answer / raja
Sessions can be used to store even complex data for the user just like cookies. Actually, sessions will use cookies to store the data, unless you explicitly tell it not to. Sessions can be used easily in ASP.NET with the Session object. We will re-use the cookie example, and use sessions instead. Keep in mind though, that sessions will expire after a certain amount of minutes, as configured in the web.config file.
