The Oracle Commerce Platform provides a session-tracking mechanism that automatically matches browser requests to a server session. The Oracle Commerce Platform uses cookies or rewritten URLs to identify requests from a given browser as belonging to the same session.
If the browser makes no requests after a period of time, the Oracle Commerce Platform assumes that the user has left the application. It invalidates the session and removes the components associated with that session. Component data that was not copied to permanent storage is lost.
For more information about session tracking, see Session Management in Oracle Commerce Platform applications in the Platform Installation and Configuration Guide.
