(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).
