If you are using PHP and/or Python code as services that are always running for the sake of efficiency and you want to maximize throughput (avoiding an Erlang port of cnode being a bottleneck), CloudI can provide service messaging and be an application server for the PHP/Python with Erlang.  The cloudi_service_http_cowboy and cloudi_service_http_elli provide integration for making HTTP requests CloudI service requests.  There is some justification at http://cloudi.org/faq.html#4_Erlang and examples at http://cloudi.org/tutorials.html#cloudi_examples .
