Alot of the data I'm going to be displayed needs to be updated immediately as it comes in. I've chosen ZODB because of the way it operates. I really enjoy the flexibility of an object-oriented database as well as the ZEO server, which will allow me to exactly what I need to do.

I haven't made any decisions as to the technology I'm going to use with prejudice, I simply failed to explain properly why I chose those technologies. > Come to that, why is it even necessary to select a > Python-based solution? Most of my codebase is currently in python. I use python to do things like data acquisiton and signal processing. I'm very familiar with python, and I enjoy developing in it.
