Assuming I follow the steps in this answer to deploy a new version of an application without downtimes. When I route the users to the new application server instance, the application will not remember their session so they will be logged out without warning. Is there a way to keep the sessions alive over multiple servers or to make a "session snapshot" or similar? In my case it's a Java application if that matters.

Store the session data on a separate server that both application servers have access to. | |||

Store the session in Memcache, and allow both servers to have access to the memcache backend. You could store them on a shared disk, but that's slow and inefficient. Memcache is pretty much the right way to do this. | |||

Look into clustering support for your server. Properly configured clustering will replicate your session data between the two servers. | |||
