Enhance PHP Application Reliability and Security
Tracking, installing, configuring and testing dozens of PHP libraries and drivers is a time sink for developers, testers and administrators. The rapid updates and code changes in today’s fast-paced Web application arena further aggravate the challenges of maintaining reliable and secure PHP runtime environments.
Zend Server customers have access to Zend’s technical support, and receive online software updates, hot fixes and security patches, to ensure they run the most reliable, secure, and up-to-date version of PHP
Ensure Successful Deployments
Many of the problems encountered during application deployment or in production occur because different PHP versions and configurations are used in development, testing and production.
Zend Server enables you to deploy your PHP applications with confidence, ensuring every member of your team uses the same, highly reliable environment consistently through each stage of the application life cycle. If you ship your PHP application to a remote customers, Zend Server’s unattended installer facilitates fast and trouble-free deployments.
Detect Problems Before the Phone Rings
When things go wrong with your application, you want to know about it as soon as possible, and resolve the problem before end-users are impacted. Zend Server enables you to take a proactive approach when it comes to ensuring the best user experience by monitoring PHP application execution and alerting you to critical problems such as:

Boost Application Performance
A high-quality user experience is expected from business-critical Web applications, even during peak loads, yet deploying more hardware to increase performance may prove to be costly. Zend Server provides multiple capabilities for improving application response times and minimizing resource utilization.
- Code Acceleration – PHP bytecode caching increases performance with no application changes
-
Full page caching – A URL-based HTML output cache that does not require any application changes
-
Partial page caching – A set of functions that allow developers to cache data in shared memory or to disk
