Zend Optimizer is a well-known piece of software, that is required to run files protected with Zend Guard. The second encodes files created in PHP 4 and PHP 5 to protect them from reverse engineering and unauthorized use, thus guarding copyright protected source code. In case you would like to protect your custom-written script, for instance, you will be able to take advantage of 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 blog. Numerous ready-made script-driven applications, particularly ones which are paid, also require Zend Optimizer to work correctly since their core code is often not free to modify. Websites which use the instrument are typically faster as their program code is already optimized and precompiled.
