Hi Volkan!
Storing the individual customer reports in the session object?
Why not batch the reports to a secure directory structure
and then use the session object to maintain authentication,
(after login), for access to the appropriate file(s) instead?
I guess I'm not seeing the reason for storing the data itself
in the session object. What purpose does that have?
[If you charge 'per view', then surely you could run your billing
off the log files.]
<a different alternative />
Ummm ... Just for the record, there are prepackaged report
writer solutions that handle things like this.
IIRC one of the major US stock exchanges, (NYSE?, AMEX?), used
to use a package called Brio to {batch} create thousands of web
accessible client reports on a daily basis. [And I kinda doubt
your security (no pun intended) / legal requirements are stricter
than theirs.]
HTH,
RonL.
