Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, that is required to execute files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encodes files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. When you'd like to protect your custom-written script, for example, you are able to use Zend Guard and your program code won't be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your blog. Countless pre-made script-driven applications, especially ones that are paid, also need Zend Optimizer in order to function properly as their core code is often not free to change. Internet sites which use the instrument are often faster as their code is already optimized and precompiled.

Zend Optimizer in Hosting

Zend Optimizer can be found on our custom-built cloud platform and you'll be able to use it regardless of the hosting plan that you select. It can be enabled from the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with all of the accounts and it will take you as little as a few clicks to do that. Because we support numerous 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'll need to enable Zend Optimizer every time you switch the version to one you haven't used so far. This is very simple though - the php.ini file where you can activate and disable various PHP extensions can be operated with a point-and-click software instrument, therefore you will not need any kind of programming skills or previous experience. Our web hosting services will allow you to run any script-driven app which requires Zend Optimizer without difficulties, but in case you are not sure what to do, you are able to get in touch with our 24/7 tech support crew and they'll enable the instrument for you.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Servers

You are able to enable Zend Optimizer with every single semi-dedicated server that we provide and it takes just a few clicks to do this. When you log in to the Hepsia Control Panel, you have to go to the PHP Configuration section where you will find many different options and On/Off buttons for them. Zend is among these options, which means that you don't have to do anything more complicated than clicking on its button. Since you can also change the PHP version for your account through the same section, you'll need to enable Zend for any new version which you use. Furthermore, we have also left the option for more experienced users to set both the PHP release and the status of Zend Optimizer manually by placing a php.ini file in a specific domain folder. The file will have effect only for this particular website, but not for the website hosting account as a whole.
