Cookies vs Sessions vs JWT

[Raul Junco]

Nice breakdown, Saurabh.

JWTs work great for microservices, but sessions still win when you need quick revocation and tighter control.

It's all about trade-offs and context.

Thanks for the article.

Great article Saurabh!

Quick question: when it comes to refresh token, you would store it in a database in order to refresh and create a new JWT, right?

Thanks for sharing it!

In customer facing financial applications all this cooked into user session credentials of database and services to know about the good 😊

Great share. As a Frontend Engineer I have seen both work in action for authorization, but JWT is vastly used than Cookies.
