High-performance RESTful API server

Job ID: 36039303

Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD

Need to create a high-performance RESTful API server.
It needs to handle 2000 requests/second with 4 Core CPUs and 8GB Memory.
This API server needs to support CRUD operations with MySQL Database.
Need to have clear modelling, I don't want to run raw SQL queries.
Need to make some stress test using Unit test frameworks or tools like Jest or Mocha, etc.
The ideal candidates should have clear understanding about epoll and asynchronous I/O mechanisms.
API server can be developed in any of C/C++ or Javascript, Python, or PHP languages, I don't care about languages but I care about the final performance of the project, though I prefer C/C++ language.
Please start your proposal with "EPOLL" to discard automated proposals.
Thanks in advance.
