Zend Optimizer is a popular piece of software, which is required to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard. The second encodes files written in PHP 4 and PHP 5 to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. If you would like to protect your custom-written script, for instance, you're able to take advantage of Zend Guard and your program code won't be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. A number of pre-made script-driven apps, in particular ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer so as to function properly since their core code is usually not free to change. Sites that use the instrument are usually speedier since their program code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
Zend Optimizer in Shared Website Hosting
Zend Optimizer can be found on our custom cloud platform and you're able to use it regardless of the shared website hosting plan that you select. It can be activated from the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with all of the accounts and it will take you just 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), you'll have to enable Zend Optimizer every time you switch the version to one you have not used yet. This is a piece of cake though - the php.ini file where you can enable and deactivate various PHP extensions can be handled with a point-and-click tool, so you do not need any computer programming skills or previous experience. Our website hosting services allow you to run any script-driven application that requires Zend Optimizer without any difficulties, but when you are unsure what to do, you will be able to contact our 24/7 tech support crew and they can activate the instrument for you.
Zend Optimizer in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You are able to activate Zend Optimizer with every single semi-dedicated server that we supply and it'll take you only a couple of clicks to do that. When you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you have to head to the PHP Configuration section where you can find various options and On/Off buttons for them. Zend is among these options, therefore you won't have to do anything more difficult than clicking on its button. Since you can also switch the PHP release for your account from the same section, you'll have to activate Zend for any new version which you use. In addition, we've also left the option for more experienced users to set both the PHP release as well as the status of Zend Optimizer manually by placing a php.ini file in a particular domain folder. The file will have effect only for this particular site, but not for the hosting account as a whole.
