That depends on the web container.

I cannot recall if the Tomcat 6 can serialize idle sessions to disk to reclaim memory, but I am sure that from Tomcat 5 (and perhaps even earlier) it is possible to maintain sessions over a container restart by serializing them "somewhere" before going down, and restoring them on the way up. That is very nice when developing.

I don't think JDBC connections are serializable, (hence "transient") so the code should be able to get a fresh one in case the session object "suddenly" went null.
