Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, that's needed to run files protected with Zend Guard. The second encodes files created in PHP 4 and PHP 5 to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. In case you wish to protect your custom script, for example, you are able to take advantage of 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 website. A lot of pre-made script-driven applications, in particular ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer in order to operate properly because their core code is generally not free to modify. Websites that use the instrument are typically quicker as their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
Zend Optimizer in Cloud Hosting
All of the cloud hosting accounts which we offer are generated on our cutting-edge cluster platform and Zend Optimizer is present on all of the servers that are part of the clusters. For that reason, you are able to install and execute script-driven applications which need Zend regardless of the package that you pick upon registration. The intuitive Hepsia Control Panel which comes with the accounts will make the management of your world wide web presence very simple and activating Zend Optimizer is not an exception since it will take just a single click to do it. Of course, more experienced users can also insert a php.ini file in a particular domain folder and use Zend only for a particular domain name. Because you can switch between many different PHP releases, you will be able to activate Zend Optimizer for any of them in exactly the same way and manage both new and older applications in the same account.
Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Servers
You are able to enable Zend Optimizer with each and every semi-dedicated server that we offer and it takes just a few clicks to do that. When you sign in to the 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, therefore you don't need to do anything more difficult than clicking on its button. Because you can also switch the PHP release for your account through the same section, you'll need to activate Zend for any new version which you use. Of course, we have also left the possibility for more experienced users to set the PHP version as well as 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 site, but not for the website hosting account as a whole.
