Stateful session manager

A system, comprising:

• a processor;
• a computer readable memory in circuit communication with the processor;
• and
• a computer readable storage medium in circuit communication with the processor;
• wherein the processor executes program instructions stored on the computer-readable storage medium via the computer readable memory and thereby:
• verifies a unique user identification credential for a requesting user for a requesting first client in response to receiving a first request for access to a microservice process from the requesting user via the first client;
• creates a client identification token in response to verifying the unique user identification credential for the user for the requesting first client;
• creates a session identification token for the request;
• maps the session identification token to the client identification token;
• passes the session identification token to the requesting client mapped to the client identification token;
• enables requested access by the first client to the requested microservice process in association with the session identification token in a session that is persisted to a session repository identified by the session identification token;
• and
• causes the requesting client to replicate the persisted session in association with the session identification token.

A computer program product for federated session management, the computer program product comprising:

• a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal per se, the computer readable program code comprising instructions for execution by a processor that cause the processor to:
• verify a unique user identification credential for a requesting user for a requesting first client in response to receiving a first request for access to a microservice process from the requesting user via the first client;
• create a client identification token in response to verifying the unique user identification credential for the user for the requesting first client;
• create a session identification token for the request;
• map the session identification token to the client identification token;
• pass the session identification token to the requesting client mapped to the client identification token;
• enable requested access by the first client to the requested microservice process in association with the session identification token in a session that is persisted to a session repository identified by the session identification token;
• and
• cause the requesting client to replicate the persisted session in association with the session identification token.
