Answer 1

Use your own concept of a persistent session that is identified by a hidden input on the page and does not expire, or at least does not expire for a very long time. Have all of your controllers derive from a single base controller and use the OnActionExecuted to add the session "key" to the ViewBag when the result is a ViewResult (you won't need it for partial views or JSON, etc). Every page can then access the ViewBag and create the hidden input - probably you want to use a partial view for this and simply include the partial on every page. Store the data associated with this session in the database.
