The open source ones are fairly untested in _huge_-scale environments
AFAICT (then again, so was PHP until recently). But for "enterprise
level" scalability, see

eBay is "powered by WebSphere" and probably a good comparison as a
dynamic web application. They're still getting more traffic than we
do. ;-)
I'm not totally compatible with all enterprise
software, but at least
Amazon is using pretty lightweight setup with most of stuff being
routed to 'services' around, SOAP, WSDL, yadda yadda. I'm not sure if
they need full-blown app server for this at the front.
What I do know is that they're making a bloody mess out of all those
aggregated web services. A little tagging here, a little wiki there,
here's some recommendations, and a wishlist and a puppy, too ...
