Zend Optimizer is a software tool, which is required to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard - a widespread application that is used to encrypt 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 numerous companies which make paid script apps, so if you obtain such an app for your site, you'll most likely need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you will host it. If you're a programmer, you can also use Zend Guard to secure your code and ensure that your site visitors or clients will be unable to alter it in any way. Websites which use Zend Optimizer ordinarily perform better because their PHP code is precompiled, thus it is already optimized and will be executed quicker.
