(Warning: I never used these systems so I may be mistaken)

Unless they have a local session manager   that allows php to register
once, get a SID and re connect on each request to fetch/catch the
notifications, it can't be used. It may be possible to store the
connection data and information in a persistent storage but the
problem of the notifcations remain, how will they be sent to PHP?

The advantage of a TTL system is its extreme simplicity and
portability (cache works per process child and work on every platform
supported by PHP).
