As ever it’s a blend, “good architecture” is the only think I try to use all the time. Languages and flavours of data storage & cache are just tools, the come third. First is understanding the data and the challenge (store/process/transmit of that data) second is the architecture.
As always our inventory of languages exceeds the maximum number of choices (5) in the poll… Are we doing something wrong? 😛

PaulC. My biggest gripe is that Oracle went ahead and did their own thing when HandlerSocket had been around for 2 years before 5.6 release. Seemed like a baaaaaad move to me. And I think only now in may, did the handlersocket source get patched to provide compile support for 5.6
What programming languages and platforms do you use for large-scale projects in your organization?
Please consider taking the HandlerSocket PHP driver under your wings. It’s messy and a hinderance to adoption, definitely not production ready.
No Haskell? My biggest production product is using Yesod, but I’ve also done smaller stuff with both Happstack and Snap.

Hi, Peter. I usually use Grails now, before purely Java. I’m happy a chess person is so successful in IT industry. Good luck!
