I am working on application which needs to fetch values from database and pass the result in form of XML. Considering all the factors (basically, speed), I guess red is will be the vest choice.
Now I need to decide on the scripting language to use. I am well versed with PHP, but concerned about how it will behave at heavy load. Any other suggestion?
For me Node.js worked very well with Redis. The module to use to connect to Redis is
node_redis

if you need to parse XML you can use xml2js
