Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that's required to execute files encoded with Zend Guard. The latter encrypts files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. When you wish to protect your custom-written script, for instance, you're able to employ Zend Guard and your program code will not be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. Numerous ready-made script-driven apps, in particular ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer so as to function properly as their core code is ordinarily not free to change. Internet sites that use the instrument are generally quicker as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.

Zend Optimizer in Shared Hosting

Zend Optimizer is available on our custom-built cloud platform and you are able to use it whatever the shared hosting package that you choose. It can be activated from the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with all the accounts and it will take you as little as a few clicks to do that. Since we support several different releases 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 need to enable Zend Optimizer each time you change the version to one you have not used so far. This is a piece of cake though - the php.ini file where you can enable and deactivate various PHP extensions can be handled with a point-and-click software tool, therefore you will not need any computer programming skills or previous expertise. Our website hosting services allow you to run any script-driven application which requires Zend Optimizer with no troubles, but if you're not sure what to do, you're able to get in touch with our 24/7 technical support crew and they'll activate the instrument for you.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Hosting

We have set up Zend Optimizer on all the servers which are a part of our revolutionary cloud hosting platform and considering that all semi-dedicated server accounts are created on it, you can enable and employ Zend for any script app that you would like to use with no more than a single click. In addition, you can choose the PHP version which will be active for your account, thus if you switch to another version, you just need to go to the Advanced section of your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and click on the On button for Zend Optimizer - it's as easy as that. In case you switch the version back, Zend will already be active. More tech-savvy users will also have the opportunity to set the PHP version and to activate Zend Optimizer just for a separate website by placing a php.ini file with the needed program code in the corresponding domain folder.
