VMware Tanzu GemFire Session Management for AppServers

This topic links to documentation about the VMware Tanzu GemFire Session Management for AppServers.

You implement session caching with VMware Tanzu GemFire Session Management for AppServers with a special filter, defined in the web.xml, which is configured to intercept and wrap all requests.

You can use this HTTP extension with a variety of application servers. Wrapping each request allows the interception of getSession() calls to be handled by Tanzu GemFire instead of the native container. This approach is a generic solution, which is supported by any container that implements the Servlet 3.1 specification.
