Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that's required to run files encoded 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 not authorized use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. When you want to protect your custom-written script, for example, you are able to use Zend Guard and your code will not be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. A lot of ready-made script-driven applications, in particular ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer to function correctly as their core code is usually not free to change. Websites that use the instrument are typically speedier as their code is already optimized and pre-compiled.

Zend Optimizer in Hosting

All hosting accounts which we provide are generated on our state-of-the-art cluster platform and Zend Optimizer is present on all of the servers which are a part of the clusters. For that reason, you'll be able to set up and execute script-driven apps which need Zend whatever the plan that you select upon registration. The user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel which is included with the accounts will make the management of your online presence very simple and enabling Zend Optimizer is not an exception as it'll take a single click to do this. In addition, more experienced users can also place a php.ini file in a particular domain folder and take advantage of Zend just for a particular domain name. Since you can switch between a variety of PHP releases, you can enable Zend Optimizer for any of them in the very same way and run both new and older applications in the same account.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to enable Zend Optimizer with each semi-dedicated server that we supply and it will take you only a few clicks to do this. When you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you have to visit the PHP Configuration section where you can find various options and On/Off buttons for each of them. Zend is one of these options, which means that you do not need to do anything more complicated than clicking on its button. As you can also change the PHP release for your account from the very same section, you will need to activate Zend for any new version that you use. Of course, we've also left the option for more experienced users to set both the PHP version as well as the status of Zend Optimizer manually by putting a php.ini file in a specific domain folder. The file will have effect only for this specific site, but not for the website hosting account in general.
