I'm designing a web application.

I was wondering if it was feasible to design a php front end (using some php framework e.g. CakePHP), which stores and retrieves data to display to the user.

Then develop a java backend which listens to the database for changes, and depending on what was changed, performs some actions and updates the database.

Any thoughts on this type of implementation would be appreciated.
