I am building a MVC 6 rc 1 application without external login provider, I have been reading some on-line articles about asp.net identity, just still confused about this Cookie-based authentication, in the Startup.cs file Configure()method, app.UseIdentity() has implemented app.UseCookieAuthentication(), I am not sure what's the difference for using these two methods? also in the articles: http://docs.asp.net/en/latest/security/authentication/cookie.html talking about using Cookie Middleware without ASP.NET Identity, I am even confused further, is owin CookieAuthentication outside of asp.net identity?
