It's kind of a baby step towards building a pseudo social network with our websites.</p> <p>My rationale here is that while I'm pretty familiarised with PHP and its whole stack (nginx, MariaDB, etc), I'm curious about the performance "risks" it has.</p> <p>I'm currently looking for comparisons between NodeJS and PHP, specifically concurrency benchmarks, because we're expecting to have lots of traffic. I know some ways to handle this in PHP, but I'm not a NodeJS developer, this would be my first project.</p> <p>I'm also aware that other languages such as Go can handle high amounts of concurrency easily, but I'm new on that front as well.</p> <p>So what would you do? Code in the language you're familiar with, or take the high road and learn another one for the sake of the project's longevity and better performance?</p> php node help sso
