I should point out Hurricane (http://gethurricane.org)

PHP: https://github.com/hurricane/driver-php

Python: https://github.com/hurricane/driver-python

Ruby: https://github.com/hurricane/driver-ruby

Java: https://github.com/hurricane/driver-java

C/C++: http://erlang.org/doc/man/ei.html

Ruby: https://github.com/mojombo/erlectricity

Java: https://github.com/fredlund/JavaErlang/
