You can use Quercus/Bianca.

It really works, I performed some selenium tests on a PHP application in a jetty container. PDO mysql use JDBC drivers (it's way faster).

You can call Java/Scala from PHP easily : http://www.caucho.com/resin-3.1/doc/quercus.xtp#CallingJavaMethods , the runtime is faster than the standard PHP runtime and you can publish your app in a WAR (sometimes, it's better than just sources).

If you plan to industrialize some PHP apps, IMO it's a good start.
