Where is the session data stored?

Does the plugin manage sessions by itself? If yes, where is the session related data stored?

Initially I thought it might be using the php session management itself. But there are no files in /tmp directory after I login in my application. However I see files in the /tmp directory when I just added a php file which does session_start() and accessed that file's URL via my browser.

Are there any settings that I should be looking at for this?

The issue I am facing is that the user gets logged out when my kubernetes pod restarts or gets killed.

This happens even when I still have the wordpress_sec cookie in my browser, and the wp_usermeta still have the token in it. This makes me think something is being written in the pod itself.
