By default flask doesnt have a db. There is flask-sessions extensiom that does this for you.

Or you can just link to a DB directly. A Flask app is just a WSGI app. You can mount and extend it with any kind of Python, no extension necessary.

[ddorian43]

That's what the extension does for you.

Can't session data be stored on disk? that's the default PHP behavior.

[ddorian43]

Because you might have multiple webservers.

[samsonradu]

There are solutions for that: Shared NAS, sticky sessions etc.

[ddorian43]

Good luck with maintaining that NAS. Your sticky sessions will logout all users on a server that goes down. It's better to have a db.

Please stop.

Of course it's better to have a db doh... I'm replying to your

People don't have NAS laying around. And don't use a filesystem as a db, especially a remote filesystem.
