Zend Optimizer is a popular software, that is required to run files encoded with Zend Guard. The second encodes files created 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. In case you want to protect your custom script, for example, you will be able to take advantage of Zend Guard and your program code will not be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. Countless ready-made script-driven apps, particularly ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer so as to work effectively because their core code is usually not free to modify. Internet sites which use the instrument are usually faster since their code is already optimized and pre-compiled.

Zend Optimizer in Hosting

Zend Optimizer is available on our custom-built cloud platform and you will be able to use it whatever the hosting package that you choose. It can be activated from the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with all of the accounts and it will take you only several clicks to do this. Given that we support several different versions of PHP (4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2), you will have to enable Zend Optimizer every time you change the version to one you have not used yet. This is quite simple though - the php.ini file where you can enable and disable various PHP extensions can be managed with a point-and-click tool, and you do not need any kind of programming skills or previous practical experience. Our website hosting services will allow you to run any script-driven application that requires Zend Optimizer without difficulties, yet when you are unsure how to proceed, you will be able to get in touch with our 24/7 tech support team and they'll activate the instrument for you.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Hosting

We provide Zend Optimizer with all of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting. It's available on our avant-garde cloud platform, therefore if any script-driven app that you wish to use requires it to function, you just need to enable it with a click from your Hepsia Control Panel. You shall find Zend in the PHP Configuration area where you may also change the PHP version that your web hosting account uses. For any new release that you set, just click on the On button for Zend Optimizer and you are all set. Hepsia remembers your choice for previously used releases of PHP, so you won't have to do that each time. If you have more experience, you're able to take full advantage of the versatility of our cloud platform and use a php.ini file to set a different PHP release and enable/disable Zend Optimizer for a specific site without the need of altering the overall settings for the whole semi-dedicated server account.
