Normally you'd use a combination of the two, depending on what is needed.
There is even a school of thought that advocates against the use of http sessions, says that everything should be either passed through the page, through cookies, or persisted in between requests (database for example).
While that's extreme, limiting what's stored in the session can be critical in high load applications as the session does eat up server memory.
