I suggest you to write the server with c++ and use winsock or berkley sockets. Bjeez guide to network programming explains everything you basically need to know about socket programming and little bit of planning how to write the networking will make it scalable. Once you learn to use them you really do not need anything else, except writing way to handle the packets which those higher level networking libraries offer.

One thing i find funny about ZeroMQ is that they say their transport system is faster than TCP, but under it they say that the messages are also carried over TCP. Really fucked up marketing. inprof, IPC are inter process communication systems and multicast afaik means just sending the packet to many clients.
