[GIS] REST backend framework for routing

frameworkjavaPHPrestrouting

I'm looking for a framework in Java or PHP to use it as backend for a mobile application. It should (if possible) implement REST services, geo functions for routing and CRUD services.

I found the Java framework GeoMajas, but I'm not quite sure to understand all it's functionnalities and for which type of project it should be used.

Any advices and ideas on which framework to use for this type of project ? Is GeoMajas a good one or isn't it designed for this case ?

I think GeoMajas is a good choice. For routing purposes I want to introduce you Graphhopper. It's still a young project, but it's java, it's incredibly fast and there are ready to use applications to route either on a web server or on the mobile device itself based on openstreetmap data. So if you have no problems to use openstreetmap and want to route on a mobile device, you should take a look.
