Answer
It allows for scalable authentication while reducing server-side session management.
Stateless JWT tokens contain user authentication information and are self-contained. This means the server doesn't need to store session data, which is beneficial for scalability in distributed systems. For example, in a microservices-based e-commerce platform, each service can independently verify JWTs without needing centralized session storage.
