Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is needed to run files protected with Zend Guard. The latter encodes files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized usage, thus guarding copyright protected source code. In case you'd like to protect your custom script, for example, you'll be able to use Zend Guard and your code will no longer be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. Many pre-made script-driven applications, particularly ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer to operate efficiently as their core code is generally not free to modify. Sites that use the instrument are normally faster because their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.

Zend Optimizer in Website Hosting

If you obtain a Linux website hosting from our company, you're able to choose the PHP release, which will be active for your account according to what your script apps require. You can activate Zend Optimizer with just a single click in the Advanced section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel for all of the versions that we offer - 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5. Once you go to this area, you are able to employ a compact tool that will allow you to control the php.ini file for your account and activate or deactivate PHP extensions using On and Off buttons, therefore you will not need any previous knowledge as enabling Zend Optimizer is as simple as clicking a button. More experienced users can do the same by placing a php.ini file with the necessary program code in a specific domain folder. If you need any assistance to activate the instrument, you're able to contact our technical support crew at any time.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to activate Zend Optimizer with every single semi-dedicated server that we offer and it will take you just a few clicks to do this. Once you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you should visit the PHP Configuration section where you will find many different options and On/Off buttons for each one of them. Zend is among these options, so you do not need to do anything more difficult than clicking on its button. Because you can also switch the PHP release for your account from the same section, you'll have to activate Zend for any new version which you use. In addition, we've also left the possibility for more experienced users to set the PHP release as well as 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 hosting account in general.
