Zend Optimizer
What exactly is Zend Optimizer? How will it influence the overall performance of a PHP app?
Zend Optimizer is a popular software, that's needed to run files protected with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encodes files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. When you'd like to protect your custom-written script, for example, you'll be able to use Zend Guard and your program code will not be human readable, but you will also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your site. A lot of pre-made script-driven applications, particularly ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer in order to work correctly since their core code is generally not free to change. Websites which use the tool are normally quicker as their code is already optimized and precompiled.
