+By default, without session affinity, Azure Front Door forwards requests originating from the same client to different origins. Certain stateful applications or in certain scenarios when ensuing requests from the same user prefers the same origin to process the initial request. The cookie-based session affinity feature is useful when you want to keep a user session on the same origin, such as scenarios where clients authenticate to the origin. When you use managed cookies with SHA256 of the origin URL as the identifier in the cookie, Azure Front Door can direct ensuing traffic from a user session to the same origin for processing.
