This project contains implementations of the Tomcat PersistentManager Store.

This implementation of the Tomcat PersistentManager Store persists data to Redis. Sessions are serialized from their Java representation and the resulting byte[] is stored, keyed by the Session id (i.e. JSESSIONID).

It works with both Tomcat 7 and 8, and with Java 7 and 8.

To use the Store, edit either the Tomcat instance's or application's context.xml, adding the following, <Valve />, <Manager />, and <Store /> definitions.

<Context>
  ...
  <Valve className="com.gopivotal.manager.SessionFlushValve" />
  <Manager className="org.apache.catalina.session.PersistentManager">
    <Store className="com.gopivotal.manager.redis.RedisStore" />
  </Manager>
  ...
</Context>

The Store has a number of configuration elements that dictate how the Redis connection will be created.
