RedisHttpSession

Is there a way to tie a user session to a Redis session? I'm not looking for a full cache integration but just a serialized http session for users.

There was a question (https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/general/23774/does-appian-support-custom-setup) asked around integration in the same vein and a few notes on Redis in a 20.4 hotfix release notes but that's it.

A reverse proxy that supports Redis and SAML could probably get the job done, but I'm looking to see if there's alternatives available.

    Appian does not support access to any session details.

    I still do not understand the purpose of your ask. Which problem do you want to solve?

    I'm looking to have a user session in Appian either serialize to/from Redis. The intent is to host session management in an area accessible to other developed apps.

    From the notes in the hotfix (above) I'm not sure if there's already a Redis instance bundled in Appian or not. If not, if there's a way to get the user session integrated.

    You can use redis client and server in the same terminal that you are supposed to run the program on any programming language they can easily be accessed and used as a cache memory
