Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, that's needed to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard. The latter encodes files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal usage, thus guarding copyright protected source code. If you need to protect your custom-made script, for instance, you're able to employ Zend Guard and your code won't be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your blog. Countless ready-made script-driven applications, particularly ones that are paid, also need Zend Optimizer in order to operate correctly because their core code is ordinarily not free to modify. Sites which use the tool are typically speedier as their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
Zend Optimizer in Shared Website Hosting
Zend Optimizer is available on our custom-made cloud platform and you will be able to use it whatever the shared website hosting plan that you choose. It can be activated from the Hepsia Control Panel that is included with all of the accounts and it'll take you only several clicks to do that. Due to the fact that we support a number of different releases of PHP (4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2), you'll need to enable Zend Optimizer each time you change the version to one you haven't used yet. This is very simple though - the php.ini file where you can activate and deactivate various PHP extensions can be handled with a point-and-click instrument, so you don't need any coding skills or previous expertise. Our web hosting services allow you to run any script-driven application which needs Zend Optimizer with no difficulties, but in case you are not sure what you should do, you'll be able to contact our 24/7 tech support team and they'll enable the instrument for you.
Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Servers
You are able to activate Zend Optimizer with every single semi-dedicated server that we offer and it takes only a couple of clicks to do that. Once you log in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you have to go to the PHP Configuration section where you'll find many different options and On/Off buttons for each one of them. Zend is one of these options, therefore you won't need to do anything more complex than clicking on its button. As you can also switch the PHP release for your account through the same section, you will have to activate Zend for any new version that you use. Of course, we have also left the option for more knowledgeable users to set both the PHP version and the status of Zend Optimizer manually by placing a php.ini file in a specific domain folder. The file will have effect just for this particular website, but not for the web hosting account as a whole.
