会话可以简单的理解为客户端用户打开一个浏览器，点击多个超链接，访问服务器多个web资源，然后关闭浏览器的整个过程称为一个会话。即一个客户端用户和服务器端进行通讯的过程，也是客户端和服务器端之间的数据传输过程。
HTTP协议的无状态性导致web服务器无法区分一个HTTP请求是否为第一次访问，因此需要程序必须能管理会话，并为每个用户保存其与服务器交互过程中产生的数据。
会话管理就是管理浏览器客户端和服务器端之间会话过程中产生的数据。
Servlet有4中不同的状态保持技术：
-- URL重写（token-based会话跟踪技术）
-- 表单隐藏域（仅当网页中有表单时使用） <input type="hidden" name="field＿name" value="value">
-- cookies（客户端技术，数据保存在客户端）
-- HTTPSession（服务器端技术，数据保存在服务器端）
URL重写 （token-based会话跟踪技术）
将一个或多个token添加到URL的查询字符串中，每个token通常为 key=value 的形式。其中，URL和token之间用 ? 分隔，token之间用 & 分隔。
URL重写仅适合于信息仅在少量页面间传递，且信息本身不敏感的情况
数据通过URL后面的token传递到下一个页面，在下一个页面（即下一个http请求）中，通过获取request.getParameter(name)获取tonken的值，从而保证了数据在不同页面间的传递 。
请表单的提交方式为get时，表单中的参数也会显示的出现在URL后面

表单隐藏域（仅当网页中有表单时有效）
使用隐藏域来保存会话过程中的数据是将值放到HTML表单的隐藏域中。当表单提交时，隐藏域的值也同时提交到服务器端。
<input type="hidden" name="field_name" value="value">
该技术较URL重写相比，没有字符的限制，同时无需额外编码，但也不适合跨越多个页面。
