Warning: connect.session() MemoryStore is not designed for a production environment, as it will leak memory, and will not scale past a single process

Question

Good day, everyone. Here is my code:

var express = require("express");
var session = require("express-session");

var app = express();
app.set("trust proxy", 1);

app.use(session({
    secret: "secret",
    saveUninitialized: true,
    resave: false,
    maxAge: 1000 * 60 * 15,
    cookie: {
        secure: true
    }
}));

This code always returns the following message in my log:

Warning: connect.session() MemoryStore is not designed for a production environment, as it will leak memory, and will not scale past a single process.

I tried googling it, but I don’t understand some of the tutorials.

Can anyone assist me with this?

//-momery unleaked---------
app.set('trust proxy', 1);

app.use(session({
cookie:{
    secure: true,
    maxAge:60000
       },
store: new RedisStore(),
secret: 'secret',
saveUninitialized: true,
resave: false
}));

app.use(function(req,res,next){
if(!req.session){
    return next(new Error('Oh no')) //handle error
}
next() //otherwise continue
});
