[Backend] Save last user's session

[namwanza]

Description: We need to implement a feature in the backend that records and saves the last session data of each user. This will enable us to provide a better user experience by allowing users to pick up where they left off in case of session timeouts, disconnections, or logout.

Requirements:

• Store Last Session Data:

  • Save critical session information such as user ID, timestamp, session duration, and any other relevant data needed to restore the session.
  • The session data should be stored securely in the database.

• Session Retrieval:

  • Implement a mechanism to retrieve the last session data when the user logs back in or reconnects.
  • Ensure that only the most recent session is retrieved and used.

• Data Expiration:

  • Define a reasonable expiration time for session data (e.g., 24 hours) after which it should be deleted to maintain database efficiency.

• Security Considerations:

  • Encrypt session data if it contains sensitive information.
  • Implement proper access control to ensure that session data can only be accessed by the respective user.

Acceptance Criteria:

• [ ] User's last session data is saved in the database upon logout or session timeout.
• [ ] The system successfully retrieves and applies the last session data when the user logs back in.
• [ ] Session data is deleted or archived after the defined expiration period.
• [ ] The implementation adheres to security best practices, including encryption and access control.

Additional Notes:

• Consider the impact of this feature on database performance and scalability.
• Ensure that the implementation is compatible with existing session management systems.
• Add unit tests and integration tests to verify the functionality.
