So im gonna start a website from scratch.. it will need some sort of database,not just static site... Im considering trying a new language and techs.... Im looking for suggestions, convince me!

For some background the site will be similar to aprs.fi in nature. There is an already written client that is in ruby that will talk to it through an API.

@freemo if the load is going to be normal, i'd go with sqlite if you need a classic DB. or go crazy with some graph db?

i'd like to hear about new languages as well :)

@bonifartius this particular application might be fine with a traditional relational DB... i do want to code it for high load, but that should be easy even with a traditional DB due to a pretty clear seperation between reading and writing
