If we use a CAS to manage authentication - then we can have every other 
microservice run in it's own way, whether it's written in Python, PHP or 
something else entirely. As the only things that would need to be 
interconnected are the sites with the authentication system, we can just 
focus on that. I'm not sure if there's a Central Authentication Service 
written for PHP, I know there is one for Python. I might try and get 
that set up then as it uses standard API calls and sesssions, we could 
try "connecting" the microservices that way?
