Lots of licensed and some cost-free script-driven apps have encrypted program code, which isn't human readable. The idea behind this is to stop the reverse engineering and the not authorized use of such apps. One of the most popular file encryption tools used for this particular purpose is named Zend Guard and it is used widely since it can be used to modify any kind of PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 code. The sole way for the encoded files to work the right way on a web server after that is when one more instrument called Zend Optimizer is there. When you wish to use any type of paid web software that needs Zend Optimizer, you have to ensure that it is installed on the server where you'll host your site. Furthermore, sites that need the tool tend to perform better due to the fact that their program code is already precompiled and optimized, and therefore it's executed more rapidly.

Zend Optimizer in Cloud Website Hosting

Zend Optimizer comes with all servers which are a part of our advanced cloud website hosting platform. Regardless of which cloud website hosting you pick, you can take advantage of the software instrument to ensure that any kind of script application which requires it will operate properly as part of your account. Using a convenient tool in the Advanced area of the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with all the web hosting accounts, you'll be able to activate and deactivate various functions with a button. Zend Optimizer will be one of them, so even if this is your first website hosting account ever, you won't encounter any difficulties. In the exact same section you can also pick the PHP version for your account - 4 and multiple versions of 5, and whenever you switch to one that you haven't used yet, you can activate Zend Optimizer for it with a click. Since our platform enables you to employ a couple of PHP versions at the same time, more experienced users can activate the tool for an individual site with a php.ini file in a specific domain folder as well.
