# AWS DynamoDB Session State Provider

> [!Warning]
> We are announcing the **deprecation** of the AWS DynamoDB Session State Provider for .NET. Support for this library will continue for the next six months and will officially end on **November 14, 2025**. After that date, we will no longer publish updates to the library, including security or critical bug fixes.
> You can learn more on the deprecation announcement via the [Announcing the end of support for AWS DynamoDB Session State Provider](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/announcing-the-end-of-support-for-aws-dynamodb-session-state-provider/) blog post.

The **Amazon DynamoDB Session State Provider** allows ASP.NET applications store their sessions inside DynamoDB. This helps applications scale across multiple application servers while maintaining session state across the system.

If you are looking to cache session state in DynamoDB from an _ASP.NET Core_ application, try the [AWS .NET Distributed Cache Provider](https://github.com/awslabs/aws-dotnet-distributed-cache-provider) instead.
