/**
 * SessionDAO implementation that relies on an enterprise caching product as the EIS system of record for all sessions.
 * It is expected that an injected {@link org.apache.shiro.cache.Cache Cache} or
 * {@link org.apache.shiro.cache.CacheManager CacheManager} is backed by an enterprise caching product that can support
 * all application sessions and/or provide disk paging for resilient data storage.
 * <h2>Production Note</h2>
 * This implementation defaults to using an in-memory map-based {@code CacheManager}, which is great for testing but
 * will typically not scale for production environments and could easily cause {@code OutOfMemoryException}s.  Just
 * don't forget to configure<b>*</b> an instance of this class with a production-grade {@code CacheManager} that can
 * handle disk paging for large numbers of sessions and you'll be fine.
 * <p/>
 * <b>*</b>If you configure Shiro's {@code SecurityManager} instance with such a {@code CacheManager}, it will be
 * automatically applied to an instance of this class and you won't need to explicitly set it in configuration.
 * <h3>Implementation Details</h3>
 * This implementation relies heavily on the {@link CachingSessionDAO parent class}'s transparent caching behavior for
 * all storage operations with the enterprise caching product.  Because the parent class uses a {@code Cache} or
 * {@code CacheManager} to perform caching, and the cache is considered the system of record, nothing further needs to
 * be done for the {@link #doReadSession}, {@link #doUpdate} and {@link #doDelete} method implementations.  This class
 * implements those methods as required by the parent class, but they essentially do nothing.
 *
 * @since 1.0
