To avoid the reverse engineering of script apps, a number of developers encode their program code with instruments such as ionCube PHP Encoder in order to make it human unreadable. The latter is valid for paid apps in particular, since anyone would be able to use and modify the unencrypted code without paying the needed license fees. If you get web software encrypted with ionCube PHP Encoder, you will be able to use it without any problems as long as an instrument called ionCube Loader is present on the hosting server. This loader enables you to execute encoded files and you will often see it on the list of prerequisites for a given script app to be installed. Because the encoded files are already precompiled, they're ordinarily executed more rapidly and this will boost the overall speed of your website.

IonCube in Cloud Hosting

If you obtain a Linux cloud hosting package from us, it will be created on our custom-made cloud hosting platform where ionCube Loader is already present, so you will not have any problems to manage any script application that needs the instrument so as to function appropriately. We also offer you several different versions of PHP, therefore if you switch the version, you'll need to activate ionCube once again. Our platform remembers the adjustments you make, and when you switch back to the earlier release of PHP that was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be activated. The PHP version as well as the ionCube instrument can be operated through the PHP Configuration part of our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Every change that you do takes literally just a single click and it will take effect instantly.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Hosting

IonCube Loader is available with all Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages that we offer, so you won't experience any kind of problems if you'd like to set up and use some script app which requires the software tool so as to operate appropriately. Enabling it is as easy as clicking a single button in the Advanced area of the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with all the semi-dedicated accounts and the change shall take effect in a minute, therefore you are able to proceed with the application set up without any delays. Since we use a cutting-edge custom-made platform and we support many different versions of PHP at the same time, you will have to enable ionCube every time you move to a version that you haven't used before. Additionally, you have the option to activate ionCube loader and even to set a PHP version different from the one in the account as a whole by creating a php.ini file in a separate domain or subdomain folder and adding a couple of lines of code inside it.
