I'm sorry if I didn't explain what I meant well enough.

I was talking about statelessness on the server side. If you remove cookies from HTTP, you now need a database on the server side.

You also get extra communication (between the client/DB, or the web service/DB), whereas previously the data would've already been available in both (the client has the jar, and the web service gets it in each the request). Turning a local memory read into a network request can be a difficult architectural change.

Also, DynamoDB reads are priced per unit ;-)
