Zend Optimizer
What precisely is Zend Optimizer? How can it impact the general performance of a PHP application?
Lots of licensed and some cost-free script-driven applications have encoded code, which isn't human readable. The reasoning behind this is to prevent the reverse engineering as well as the unwanted use of such apps. Among the most popular encryption software instruments used for this specific purpose is called Zend Guard and it's widespread due to the fact that it can be used to alter any PHP 4 or PHP 5 code. The only method for the protected files to work efficiently on a web server afterwards is if one more instrument called Zend Optimizer is there. In the event that you wish to work with any type of paid web software which requires Zend Optimizer, you need to ensure that it is installed on the server where you'll host your website. In addition, sites that need the instrument tend to perform better as their code is already precompiled and optimized, which means that it is executed more quickly.
