Zend Optimizer is an instrument, that is needed to run files encoded with Zend Guard - a popular application which is employed to encode PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the purpose to protect them from tampering with the program code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by numerous companies that make paid script apps, so when you acquire such an app for your site, you'll most likely need Zend Optimizer to be present on the server where you will host it. In case you are a programmer, you may also use Zend Guard to secure your code and make sure that your website visitors or customers will not be able to alter it in whatever way. Sites that use Zend Optimizer ordinarily perform better due to the fact that their PHP code is precompiled, so it's already optimized and will be executed much faster.
