Hello, Roman.
We developed that application using php-mapscript.
Basically we do the following:
1. Define a .map file with all the relevant shapefiles needed.
2. Save non-geographic information in an external database (mySQL in 
this case)
3. When the information changes, we re-create the shape on-the-fly.
4. Refresh the map.

If you need more details, feel free to contact me.
