Zend Optimizer is a software tool, which is needed to execute files encoded with Zend Guard - a well-known app that is used to encode PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the objective to protect them from tampering with the code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by a great number of companies which develop paid script apps, so when you acquire such an app for your website, you will probably need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you'll host it. In case you're a programmer, you can also use Zend Guard to protect your program code and make sure that your website visitors or clients will not be able to change it in whatever way. Websites which use Zend Optimizer ordinarily perform much better due to the fact that their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it is already optimized and will be executed more quickly.
