Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is required to execute files encoded with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encodes files created in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and not authorized usage, thus guarding copyrighted source code. In case you want to protect your custom-written script, for example, you're able to use Zend Guard and your program code will no longer be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. Numerous ready-made script-driven apps, especially ones that are paid, also require Zend Optimizer so as to function effectively as their core code is usually not free to modify. Internet sites that use the instrument are often quicker since their code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
