Q: 

web programming choice - language, database, reliable hoster and auto-scaling

Could you please suggest - programming option?

Our Web application could have 60000 database requests/second or more in future.

Which is better: MS-SQL or MySQL or other?

Which is better: Asp.net, PHP, JSP or other?

What kind of webhosting is reliable for auto-scaling?

Any good webhosters or hosting plans?

Thanks a lot.

A: 

web programming choice is not easy because it depends of what you are familiar to.

to deal with your database flow, MySQL is better, and widely use for web applications.

Asp.net and JSP are platforms which offer you many tools to reduce your development time.

JSP is good for application which will have many kind of user's interface like (PC, Pocket PC, phones and so on) the hosting depends on the technology used for programming so according to your choice many hosting plans will be found

so finaly i suggest : MySQL and JSP

now it depend if your are familiar to these languages or not

MySQL is indeed widely used for web applications, I use it myself. The argument that MySQL is "better" doesn't resonate with me though. Both have their strengths and weaknesses but all in all, I find myself using less profanity using SQL Server.

@Lieven my thoughts exactly.

Though I don't agree with the entire answer, it does make the very valid point that you should probably use what you are familiar with. I don't understand it gets downvoted that much.
