Session persistence on azure load balancer
Hi,
Do we need session persistence to be enabled ON in the azure load balancer settings for Pega applications ?
Thanks,
Siva

did you already go through the documented Setting up load balancers ?
Pega Platform requires session-based affinity support in a load balancer to ensure that requests from one user are directed to a specific application server that maintains the state for that user. It is a Pega best practice to use cookie-based session affinity. Therefore, the "None (hash-based)" option in Azure load balancer, which provides stickiness only within a transport session, may not be suitable for Pega applications as it does not maintain user session affinity across multiple requests.

@SivaramanI have the same question. Any recommended approach based on your experience ?
In particular, I would like to know if the following option would work - None (hash-based) - provides stickiness only within a transport session ?
Best Regards,
