For a couple of pages on our site, I'm writing a widget that relies on what it displays on other pages to determine what it displays on the current page. Basically, the purpose is just to ensure there's no duplicate content. It's not individualized per user, just depended on what's being displayed elsewhere at the current given time.
My CTO will not allow me to save the data in the database or even a log file to keep a persisting state, so to accomplish this the only other way I can think of is set a $_SESSION variable and store the persisting state there. However, I'm realizing google's bot probably doesn't use cookies so I'm not sure if this will work.
Does anyone know if Google will still index the pages if what they're displaying relies on a session variable? If not, is there another way to store a persisting state across pages that doesn't use the db or log file that googlebot will understand?

What do you do when a user visits the site for the first time? Presumably you calculate what needs to be displayed, display it, and "cache" something in the session (as you mention). Every Googlebot visit is like the user's first time visit (as @Simon mentions - the Googlebot does not use cookies, so no session data can persist).
So, assuming you do display this content to the user on their first visit then GoogleBot will also see this content, except that it will need to be calculated (which could be slow?) on every request.
