IOS Web Service Recommendations

I have a MYSQL server setup. What are my option for developing a IOS web server that will allow me to do CR开发者_C百科UD with the IOS devices.

Please help it will greatly be appreciated. This my first stackoverflow post, being getting recommendations to join this site..

I would recommend an Apache2/PHP/MySQL stack for developing a web service for use with an iOS application. Consider using one of the common PHP frameworks such as codeIgnitor or cakePHP and sending your output in JSON format (not SOAP -- too much overhead).

---

PHP with a framework (as mentioned by Casey) and Ruby on Rails are probably the two most common solutions -- lots of resources for both here on SO

---

RobyOnRails absolutely! Because you can use RESTful web services with ease, and there is great RESTKit objective-c framework for object-mapping and abstract layer for network requests.

Though I haven't used this, I'm fan of http://getfrapi.com/ it is right tool for the job.
