Zend Optimizer is a popular software, that is required to execute files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encrypts files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 in order to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized use, thus guarding copyrighted source code. In case you want to protect your custom-written script, for example, you're able to take advantage of Zend Guard and your program code will no longer be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. Countless pre-made script-driven applications, in particular ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer to operate properly since their core code is often not free to change. Internet sites that use the tool are often quicker as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.

Zend Optimizer in Shared Hosting

Zend Optimizer can be found on our custom-made cloud platform and you'll be able to use it whatever the shared hosting package that you select.
