what do I need to build quick running site and databases?

3
I am looking to have a full client server architecture built for a innovative new service that will require a number of large databases to be built, an iphone app and an interactive website with a social aspect too where users can leave entries and entries can be updated by other users and commented on etc..

It will involve API link in in the numbers of 100's of thousands of entries and needs to be very quick to run on iPhone and be useful.

I am meeting with a guy who has been using Java and Oracle for a number of years and I was wondering if he would have the required skills to do this if he is good in these languages??

I understand iphone app has to be in objective C but basically my question is, is it possible to build the rest of the system using Java and oracle?

Thanks in advance

I assume you also would be aware of J2ME (Java 2 Mobile Edition) technology which can be used to build Mobile Applications. If you analyse further on J2ME, that would help you decide on whether to go with J2ME

Do consider below points during your design phase:

1. How the response of your application will be when huge number of users get registered?
2. How much your application is Secure?
3. What backup plans you have when the network goes down or in case of any other failure?

thanks for the reply amitpatel66,
Unfortunately I don't know much about J2ME, I'm an accountant/management consultant by trade myself so I'm more on the business and ideas side rather than tech side.

What I'm wondering basically is are skills in those two languages enough to build a scalable quick reliable back end and website?
