Zend Optimizer
Learn exactly what Zend Optimizer is and exactly how it will affect the overall performance of a PHP application.
Zend Optimizer is a popular software, which is required to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard. The second encodes files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. When you would like to protect your custom-made script, for example, you are able to employ Zend Guard and your program code won't be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. Countless ready-made script-driven applications, particularly ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer to function correctly since their core code is often not free to modify. Sites which use the tool are often faster as their code is already optimized and precompiled.

Zend Optimizer in Cloud Website Hosting
Zend Optimizer is set up on all servers which are a part of our revolutionary cloud hosting platform. No matter which

By using a convenient software tool from the Advanced section of the Hepsia Control Panel that is included with all of the web hosting accounts, you'll be able to activate and deactivate different settings with a single button. Zend Optimizer is one of them, so even if this happens to be your very first web hosting account ever, you won't experience any problems. In the exact same section you can also pick the PHP release for your account - 4 and numerous versions of 5, which means that whenever you move to one that you haven't used yet, you can activate Zend Optimizer for it with a single click. Because our platform enables you to work with a couple of PHP versions simultaneously, more experienced users can enable the instrument for an individual site with a php.ini file in a specific domain folder as well.
