State is any piece of information or data that alters or affects the behavior of a web application. ASP.NET provides easy-to-use application and session state facilities that are familiar to existing Classic ASP developers.
The state management support offered by ASP.NET has better support for web farm server deployments because it uses an external state management service that runs in a separate process on a server. It is accessible by all web servers in a web farm because the session state is not stored on the web server dealing with the web requests. It is stored in a fixed location.
More information on state management can be found in Chapter 5, “State Management in ASP.NET.”
