Zend Optimizer is a software instrument, which is required to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard - a popular application which is employed to encrypt PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the idea to protect them from tampering with the program code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by a great number of corporations which develop paid script apps, so if you acquire such an application for your site, you will probably need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you will host it. If you are a programmer, you may also use Zend Guard to shield your code and ensure that your website visitors or customers won't be able to alter it in any way. Websites that use Zend Optimizer generally perform better owing to the fact that their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it's already optimized and will be executed much faster.
