Zend Optimizer is a software instrument, that's needed to execute files protected with Zend Guard - a popular application which is used to encrypt PHP 4 and PHP 5 files with the purpose to protect them from tampering with the code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by plenty of corporations that create paid script apps, so when you obtain such an app for your site, you'll most likely need Zend Optimizer to be present on the server where you will host it. In case you're a programmer, you may also use Zend Guard to secure your code and ensure that your site visitors or customers won't be able to change it in any way. Sites which use Zend Optimizer ordinarily perform better owing to the fact that their PHP code is precompiled, thus it is already optimized and will be executed more quickly.

Zend Optimizer in Cloud Hosting

Zend Optimizer is installed on all the servers which are part of our modern cloud web hosting platform. Regardless of which Linux cloud hosting you obtain, you will be able to take advantage of the software instrument to ensure that any kind of script application that needs it will function flawlessly as part of your account. By using a convenient software tool from the Advanced area of the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with all the web hosting accounts, you'll be able to activate and deactivate many different functions with a button. Zend Optimizer will be one of these, so even if this happens to be your very first website hosting account ever, you won't experience any issues. In the exact same area you can also choose the PHP release for your account - 4 and multiple versions of 5, and 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 use a couple of PHP versions at the same time, more advanced 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

We offer Zend Optimizer with all our semi-dedicated packages. It is installed on our innovative cloud platform, which means that if any script-driven app which you would like to use requires it to function, you just need to activate it with a click in the Hepsia Control Panel. You'll find Zend in the PHP Configuration area where you may also change the PHP version that your web hosting account uses. For each new release that you set, simply click on the On button for Zend Optimizer and you are all set. Hepsia will remember your selection for previously used releases of PHP, so you will not have to do that every time. In case you have more experience, you can take full advantage of the flexibility of our cloud platform and employ a php.ini file to set a different PHP version and enable/disable Zend Optimizer for a specific domain without altering the settings for the entire semi-dedicated server account.
