Python web-framework+db with the widest scalability?

Hi,

>From my experience while NoSQL databases are very fast and scalable, there is lack of _good_ support for popular frameworks. I've try with django and mongoengine, but results was poor. In my company we're building now large api-driven application with django and postgresql as a base. Django has two great api engines - piston and tastypie. Consider looking to nosql eg. mongodb as caching engine and session storage. Django is mature and stable framework, it has some limitations but there are good and documented use cases for doing almost everything You may need. Look also at server layer - popular apache and cgi-like solutions has very poor performance. Maybe You have use-cases to develop with messages queues like celery.
