Zend Optimizer
What exactly is Zend Optimizer? How will it impact the effectiveness of a PHP app?
Many licensed and some free of cost script-driven applications have encoded code, which isn't human readable. The idea behind this is to stop the reverse engineering as well as the illegal usage of such apps. One of the most popular file encryption software instruments used for this purpose is called Zend Guard and it is popular because it can be used to alter all PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 code. The only method for the encoded files to run the right way on a web server after that is when a second tool called Zend Optimizer is there. In case you'd like to use any paid web software that requires Zend Optimizer, you should make sure that it's set up on the server where you will host your site. Furthermore, websites which require the instrument usually perform better due to the fact that their code is already precompiled and optimized, meaning that it is executed more rapidly.
