Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is needed to run files encoded with Zend Guard. The aforementioned encodes files written in PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 so as to protect them from reverse engineering and illegal usage, thus guarding copyright protected source code. When you need to protect your custom-written script, for instance, you're able to employ Zend Guard and your program code will not be human readable, but you'll also need Zend Optimizer on the server where you host your website. A lot of ready-made script-driven apps, particularly ones which are paid, also need Zend Optimizer to function effectively since their core code is generally not free to change. Websites that use the tool are normally speedier as their code is already optimized and pre-compiled.
