Zend Optimizer is a popular software, that is needed to execute files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encrypts files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. When you wish to protect your custom-made script, for example, you are able to use Zend Guard and your program code will no longer be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. Various pre-made script-driven applications, in particular ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer so as to function efficiently as their core code is ordinarily not free to modify. Sites which use the tool are often speedier as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.

Zend Optimizer in Web Hosting

Zend Optimizer is set up on all servers which are a part of our innovative cloud web hosting platform. No matter which web hosting service you get, you can activate the software tool so that any script app that needs it will operate flawlessly in your account. By using a handy software tool in the Advanced area of the Hepsia Control Panel that is included with all of the web hosting accounts, you will be able to activate and deactivate various settings with one button. Zend Optimizer is one of them, so even if this is your very first web hosting account ever, you won't have any troubles. In the same area you can also choose the PHP release for your account - 4 and several versions of 5, so any time you switch to one that you have not used yet, you can enable Zend Optimizer for it with a click. Since our platform enables you to use several PHP releases at the same time, more experienced users can enable the instrument for a particular website with a php.ini file in a specific domain folder as well.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can activate Zend Optimizer with every single semi-dedicated server that we supply and it will take you just a few clicks to do this. When you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you should visit the PHP Configuration section where you will find a variety of options and On/Off buttons for each one of them. Zend is among these options, which means that you don't need to do anything more complex than clicking on its button. Since you can also change the PHP release for your account through the very same section, you'll need to activate Zend for any new version which you use. Of course, we have also left the possibility for more experienced users to set both the PHP release as well as the status of Zend Optimizer manually by putting a php.ini file in a particular domain folder. The file will have effect only for this specific site, but not for the hosting account in general.
