PHP for node.js communication

I am trying to create a notification system very similar to SO (one when a new message is received). My site is built in PHP and I would like to be notified when data is inserted into the DB from PHP.

At the top of my head, I was just curling up the server node passing some post parameters to it, is this the correct way to do it?

Is there any good practice (security, performance ...)?

Take a look at redis channels. We use this practice for the same. Advantages: You can have many node.js servers and they will receive notifications at almost the same time ...
