Zend Optimizer is an instrument, which is required to run files encrypted with Zend Guard - a widespread application which is employed to encode PHP 4 and PHP 5 files with the objective to protect them from tampering with the program code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by lots of organizations that create paid script applications, so in case you buy such an app for your site, you will most likely need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you'll host it. If you're a programmer, you can use Zend Guard to protect your code and ensure that your website visitors or customers will be unable to alter it in any way. Websites which use Zend Optimizer usually perform better because their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it's already optimized and will be executed more quickly.
