Zend Optimizer is an instrument, that's required to run files protected with Zend Guard - a well-known app which is used to encode PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the purpose to protect them from tampering with the code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by lots of companies which create paid script applications, so if you purchase such an app for your site, you'll probably need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you will host it. In case you're a programmer, you can use Zend Guard to secure your program code and make sure that your site visitors or clients will not be able to alter it in any way. Websites that use Zend Optimizer ordinarily perform better since their PHP code is precompiled, so it's already optimized and will be executed a lot faster.

Zend Optimizer in Hosting

Zend Optimizer is accessible on our in-house built cloud platform and you will be able to use it regardless of the hosting plan that you choose.
