Would Node.js (which uses a non-blocking I/O) be suitable for building a db driven application like Stack Overflow My understanding is that nb I/O is good when the requests don't take much time and db query could be a time-intensive operation. Is my understanding correct or am I missing something?
I guess a better question would be - which would be a better option to build a db driven app (like Stack Overflow), something like node.js or something like RoR/Django/Play?
I'm asking for the pros and cons of each.
Yes, Node.js is suitable for database-driven applications as long as there is a good asynchronous I/O node.js library for your database engine of choice.

I know this is the kind of question that usually gets deleted, but I have to find some answers. I want to build a project in a new technology more suitable to hosting on a Linux server, but I like the way things are done in ASP.NET MVC. I've looked at Rails a bit but I've heard that Rails performs and scales poorly. Any suggestions appreciated.
Ruby on Rails doesn't scale well, but depending on your needs you may never have to worry about it.
My guess is you'd be most comfortable with something like CakePHP or just PHP and whatever MVC framework. It's pretty C# like, and it's FAST!
Python/Django is also a good choice. (My personal favorite)

I'm currently developing a rails app, based on Redmine, using a multitenancy approach. The app it is intended to be used by lots of users (at least I hope so :)), so it is important that it can handle several requests without compromise its performance. Having this in mind, I'm wondering which rails server would suit my needs best. I'm currently using thin, for memory savings purposes, but I'm afraid it is not the best choice for me... I've used unicorn before and I liked it a lot, but it was consuming a lot of memory and I had to change it to another one, but I've noticed that my app is not as fast as it used to be. Any advises? Thanks a lot in advance!
Use Passenger with Apache.

I want to use MVC for a big project, but I read in some website that this is not suitable for large projects.
Is this true? and are there examples of some great sites or application that have been written with this technology?
We built the site you are browsing with it.
StackOverflow is a 100k LoC ASP.NET MVC site, and is currently #66 #53 in the world for traffic according to Quantcast.
More in general, it matters much more how you use it.
Facebook is PHP based, twitter is Ruby based. Both are relatively slow interpreted languages, and yet, they work!

I am new to Contiki-OS. Although I have experience in java but not very strong background in C/C++. I am working on a Wireless sensor networking domain in which I have to develop an application which can run in Contiki-OS, this application is already developed in java but as contiki is based on C/C++ so i have to port application from java to C.
I hope this edit makes the question clear

Does anybody know if youtube uses Django, Rails or some other framework?
I googled, but couldn't seem to find any straight forward answer.
Presumably this is their stack -
Apache
Python
Linux Suse
MySQL
Psyco - dynamic python-C compiler
lighttpd - for video instead of apache
maybe Java
According to this website. But most of these companies keep it a secret what exactly they use. Even to date its not clear what kind of webservers Google uses...
