title: How to avoid sticky sessions?
body: <p>I am trying to understand and figure out how can sticky sessions be avoided in general.</p>
  
  <p>I researched to come across a lot about, <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10494431/sticky-and-non-sticky-sessions">Sticky and NON-Sticky sessions</a> and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1553645/pros-and-cons-of-sticky-session-session-affinity-load-blancing-strategy">Pros and Cons of Sticky Session / Session Affinity load blancing strategy?</a> And how sticky sessions are to be <a href="http://www.chaosincomputing.com/2012/05/sticky-sessions-are-evil/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">avoided at all costs</a> but none of these resources and questions really mentioned an alternative strategy to sticky sessions or how else to maintain user state.</p>
  
  <p>Some ideas that come to mind are a central DB of sorts to keep track of sessions but that seems to be bad design too.</p>
