[Zope] Assessment?

[Dave Goodrich]

I'm asking the list cause we have a project to build a web app (in 
house) that has grown in scope, quadrupled in size. I've seen many 
references to SQL on this list so I just _knew_ this would be the 
place to ask.

Currently we are looking into using PHP, WebObjects, or JSP. I'd 
like to get Zope in the running. PHP can handle it and I like PHP, 
WebObjects seems to missing available information so I don't know 
much. JSP, well I don't think the parties pushing for JSP can even 
tell me if they want to use something like jserver, JavaBeans, or 
what not. When I asked them if they considered Enhydra, they knew 
not of what I spoke...

I believe Zope can do what we need. We plan to use the server to 
serve up approx 200 pages, pull downs and trees will be populated 
with query results, pages will be personalized, all the general web 
app stuff. The server must be able to support upto 40k requests per 
day. All content will come from the SQL server (we are looking at 
Sybase and Oracle I'm open to suggestions). SQL will be the heavy 
lifter using compiled in functions for queriying tables with well 
over 100k records. I like the SQL connectors in Zope, they are easy 
to use and customize. Basicly Zope must just maintain sessions, 
render charts from SQL results, and populate the page with data on 
request. 

My question is this, has anyone built a web app in Zope this large?
