Using Alternate Session Factories
---------------------------------
-At the time of this writing, exactly two alternate session factories
-exist.
-
-The first is named ``pyramid_redis_sessions``. It can be downloaded from PyPI.
-It uses Redis as a backend. It is the recommended persistent session solution
-at the time of this writing.
-
-The second is named ``pyramid_beaker``. This is a session factory that uses the
-`Beaker <http://beaker.groovie.org/>`_ library as a backend. Beaker has
-support for file-based sessions, database based sessions, and encrypted
-cookie-based sessions. See `the pyramid_beaker documentation
-<http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid_beaker/en/latest/>`_ for more
-information about ``pyramid_beaker``.
