title: Storing Variables Server Side SignalR
body: <p>I was wondering how I can store variables server side that can be fired to connected clients when called?.</p>
  
  <p>I use a concurrent dictionary to keep track of the connections GUID's and was wondering can I store strings or other data types on the server , for example the last 10 messages , so when a new connection occurs the client gets the last 10 messages even though they where not connected beforehand.</p>
  
  <p>I could see many uses for it but don't see much on this , is this frowned upon?, or bad practice ?. I can see that storing huge strings server side could cause lots of issues. But is what I am proposing really that bad?.</p>
