Using Profile in Web Farm

Question

User701656190 posted

My web app must access database via web service, and can not access databse directly.

In case my web app is deployed into a web farm, to remember the user's preference, I think I can't use ASP.NET Profile directly. Does anyone have good idea?

Just as I mentioned in my post, my web app can not access the central database directly. That means I can't use ASP.NET Profile just by modifying the web.config file. So I think at least I need to create a cust Profile Provider. What's your opinion?

Starting with the CommonData solution at http://CommonData.CodePlex.Com, you could roll your own membership system that you could expose as a Web Service.
