Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is needed to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encodes files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 so as to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal usage, thus guarding copyright protected source code. If you wish to protect your custom-written script, for instance, you'll be able to take advantage of Zend Guard and your code will not be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your blog. A lot of ready-made script-driven apps, especially ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer so as to operate properly since their core code is often not free to change. Sites that use the instrument are typically faster as their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.

Zend Optimizer in Web Hosting

Zend Optimizer comes with all servers that are a part of our leading-edge cloud website hosting platform. Regardless of which web hosting you pick, you can take advantage of the software tool to guarantee that any kind of script app that requires it will function perfectly in your account. By using a convenient software instrument from the Advanced section of the Hepsia Control Panel which is included with all of the hosting accounts, you will be able to activate and deactivate a variety of options with a button. Zend Optimizer will be one of these, so even if this is your first hosting account ever, you will not encounter any problems. In the exact same section you can also choose the PHP version for your account - 4 and several versions of 5, therefore whenever you switch to one that you haven't used yet, you can activate Zend Optimizer for it with a click. Since our platform allows you to employ several PHP releases at the same time, more experienced users can enable the instrument for an individual site with a php.ini file in a specific domain folder as well.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to enable Zend Optimizer with every single semi-dedicated server that we supply and it takes just a few clicks to do this. After you log in to the Hepsia Control Panel, you should go to the PHP Configuration section where you can find various options and On/Off buttons for each one of them. Zend is among these options, which means that you do not have to do anything more complicated than clicking on its button. As you can also change the PHP version for your account from the very same section, you will have to activate Zend for any new version which you use. Of course, we've also left the possibility for more knowledgeable users to set the PHP version and the status of Zend Optimizer manually by putting a php.ini file in a particular domain folder. The file will have effect just for this particular site, but not for the website hosting account as a whole.
