Zend Optimizer is a software instrument, that's needed to run files encoded with Zend Guard - a widespread app 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 code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by a large number of companies which develop paid script apps, so when you buy such an application for your website, 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 protect your code and make sure that your site visitors or clients will not be able to change it in any way. Sites that use Zend Optimizer often perform better due to the fact that their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it's already optimized and will be executed much faster.
