        the store or runtime exception

    - #### create

          static SessionStore create(Vertx vertx,
                                     JsonObject options)

      Create a Session store given a backend and configuration JSON.
      Parameters:
        `vertx` - vertx instance
        `options` - extra options for initialization
      Returns:
        the store or runtime exception

    - #### init

          SessionStore init(Vertx vertx,
                            JsonObject options)

      Initialize this store.
      Parameters:
        `vertx` - the vertx instance

      Returns:
        self

    - #### retryTimeout

          long retryTimeout()

      The retry timeout value in milli seconds used by the session handler when it retrieves a value from the store.

      A non positive value means there is no retry at all.
      Returns:
        the timeout value, in ms

    - #### createSession

          Session createSession(long timeout)

      Create a new session using the default min length.
      Parameters:
        `timeout` - - the session timeout, in ms
      Returns:
        the session

    - #### createSession

          Session createSession(long timeout,
                                int length)

      Create a new session.
      Parameters:
        `timeout` - - the session timeout, in ms
        `length` - - the required length for the session id
      Returns:
        the session

    - #### get

          void get(String cookieValue,
                   Handler<AsyncResult<Session>> resultHandler)

      Get the session with the specified ID.
      Parameters:
        `cookieValue` - the unique ID of the session
        `resultHandler` - will be called with a result holding the session, or a failure

    - #### delete

          void delete(String id,
                      Handler<AsyncResult<Void>> resultHandler)

      Delete the session with the specified ID.
      Parameters:
        `id` - the session id
        `resultHandler` - will be called with a success or a failure

    - #### put

          void put(Session session,
                   Handler<AsyncResult<Void>> resultHandler)

        `session` - the session
        `resultHandler` - will be called with a success or a failure

          void size(Handler<AsyncResult<Integer>> resultHandler)

      Get the number of sessions in the store.

      Beware of the result which is just an estimate, in particular with distributed session stores.

      Parameters:
        `resultHandler` - will be called with the number, or a failure

    - #### close
