Python web-framework with the widest scalability?

2012-05-12 Thread Alec Taylor 
I am building a project requiring high performance and scalability,
entailing:

   - Role-based
authenticationhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role-based_access_controlwith
   
API-keyhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_programming_interface_keylicensing
to access data of specific users
   - API http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_programming_interfaceexposed
with
   REST http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REST
(XMLhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML,
   JSON http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON),
XMLRPChttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMLRPC,
   JSONRPC http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSONRPC and
SOAPhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOAP
   - Easily configurable getters and
settershttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutator_methodto create APIs
accessing the same data but with input/output in different
   schemas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_schema

A conservative estimate of the number of tables—often whose queries require
joins—is: 20.

Which database type—e.g.: NoSQL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NoSQL
or DBMShttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_management_system
—key-value data store
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key-value_data_storeor
object-relational
database http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-relational_database—e.g.:
Redis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redis or
PostgreSQLhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL—and
web-framework http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_application_framework—e.g.
Django http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Django_%28web_framework%29,
Web2Pyhttp://www.web2py.com/or
Flask http://flask.pocoo.org/—would you recommend?

Most of the frameworks are sufficiently scalable.  Scalability
usually stems from design decisions (architecture and algorithm) and
caching, and you'll usually hit bandwidth or algorithm/architecture
limits long before the frameworks are your primary bottleneck.
