Can custom WebSpeed broker code, with session management in FreeFramework be migrated to PAS?

[ChadThomsonPSC]

"Our application uses customized WebSpeed broker code. Customization added custom user authentication and web session management. Customization was based on FreeWebFramework (it was such a framework). Is it possible to migrate such a solution without full rewrite (of websesion management)?"

The web authentication does not get passed-through to the OE session, by default.
If you have modified web-disp.p, web-util.p, or any other 'core' WebSpeed code, you will need to find alternatives for those changes.

You would be better served identifing code used for Authentication (e.g. capturing request password and comparing to state in a DB), and replace with code concerned with Authorization of the action/request.

You may find better alternatives in the PAS, Spring, Tomcat application spaces, but code using FreeFramework session mangement should work with PAS, provided the request state (cookies) is managed correctly.
