Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, that is required to run files encoded with Zend Guard. The second encrypts files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. When you need to protect your custom-written script, for example, you can take advantage of Zend Guard and your program code will no longer be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your blog. A number of pre-made script-driven applications, particularly ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer in order to function properly because their core code is ordinarily not free to modify. Websites that use the instrument are usually faster as their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.

Zend Optimizer in Shared Hosting

If you buy a Linux shared hosting package from us, you have the option to pick the PHP version, that will be active for your account based on what your script apps need. You will be able to activate Zend Optimizer with a single click in the Advanced area of the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel for any of the versions that we offer - 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5. When you go to this area, you will be able to employ a compact tool which will allow you to control the php.ini file for the account and enable or disable PHP extensions with On and Off buttons, therefore you won't need any previous experience considering that activating Zend Optimizer is as easy as clicking a button. More experienced users will be able to do the same thing by adding a php.ini file with the required program code in a particular domain folder. In case you need any help to activate the instrument, you will be able to contact our tech support team at any time.

Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You are able to activate Zend Optimizer with each semi-dedicated server that we provide and it'll take you only a few clicks to do this. After you log in to the Hepsia Control Panel, you have to go to the PHP Configuration section where you can find many different options and On/Off buttons for each one of them. Zend is among these options, which means that you won't need to do anything more difficult than clicking on its button. Because you can also switch the PHP version for your account through the same section, you will have to activate Zend for any new version which you use. In addition, we have also left the option for more knowledgeable 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 web hosting account in general.
