Preferably you should cache the session itself as well (so you don't
have to recreate it all the time) and reuse that across you application.
Or you could have multiple independent sessions as well. If you store
the key of the session somewhere, you can easily restore this session
(or sessions) after failure.

Let's say where we don't need timers - in those cases one can
create
(create only if its not there) a global session (create the
sessioninfo at the drools startup - store the session primary key
somewhere) - reuse this session across everywhere?

Pardeep,
The behavior you are describing is indeed correct. The session in
this
case is a global session, meaning that it will be used for all
process
instances. Note however that, unless you are using timers, all
other
state (process instance state, work items, etc.) is persisted
separately
and the session state will basically be empty.
It is also possible to have one session per process instance (or
whatever partitioning you like). A session has a unique id (which
you
can specify when reloading the session). You'll then have to load
the
right session before continuing the execution of your process
instance.
