There is only one instance of your realm that is shared by all incoming
requests. That mean only local values inside methods are individual.
Every property that is stored at instance of class level is to be
accessed and stored in a ThreadSafe manner. It's up to you code to be
Threadsafe by assuming several Http Threads can run it at the same Time.
You can, however, make the assumption that the Thread that goes inside
your realm methods is the same that will serve your request. As such,
you can save datas for later use by same Thread using ThreadLocal.
However, Threadlocal are to be used with caution. Do not forget to set
their value back to null our you could face a case of memory leak.
