Session is used for the TempData store. TempData is a highly limited form of session state which will last only until the next request from a certain user. (Edit In MVC 2+, it lasts until it is next read.) The purpose of TempData is to store data, then do a redirect, and have the stored data be available to the action to which you just redirected.

Using Session for the TempData store means that any distributed caching system which already handles Session will work for TempData. Avoiding using Session directly when TempData will do has a couple of advantages. One is that you don't have to clean up the Session yourself; TempData will "expire" on its own.
