Zend Optimizer
What exactly is Zend Optimizer? How will it influence the overall performance of a PHP app?
Zend Optimizer is a tool, that's needed to execute files protected with Zend Guard - a widespread app which is used to encrypt PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the objective to protect them from tampering with the program code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by a large number of organizations that create paid script applications, so in case you get such an application for your website, you'll probably need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you'll host it. If you are a programmer, you can use Zend Guard to secure your program code and make sure that your website visitors or customers will be unable to change it in whatever way. Sites that use Zend Optimizer usually perform better due to the fact that their PHP code is precompiled, so it is already optimized and will be executed quicker.

Zend Optimizer in Website Hosting
Zend Optimizer comes with all servers that are a part of our advanced cloud website hosting platform. No matter which
Linux website hosting you get, you can activate the software instrument to ensure that any script app that requires it will function properly in your account. By using a convenient instrument in the Advanced section of the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with all of the web hosting accounts, you can activate and deactivate a variety of options with a button. Zend Optimizer will be one of these, so even if this is your very first web hosting account ever, you will not experience any problems. In the very same area you can also select the PHP release for your account - 4 and several versions of 5, which means that any time you change to one that you haven't used yet, you can enable Zend Optimizer for it with a single click. Because our platform allows you to employ a couple of PHP versions at the same time, more experienced users can activate the tool for a particular website with a php.ini file in a specific domain folder as well.
