In order to avoid the reverse engineering of script apps, many developers encode their program code with tools like 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 change the unencrypted code without paying the required license fees. When you acquire web software encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, you can use it without a problem as long as a tool named ionCube Loader is a part of the web hosting server. This loader enables you to run encoded files and you'll often find it on the list of prerequisites for a particular script app to be installed. As the encrypted files are already precompiled, they are normally executed faster and this can raise the overall speed of your website.

IonCube in Cloud Hosting

When you get a Linux cloud hosting from us, it will be set up on our tailor-made cloud hosting platform where ionCube Loader is already set up, so you will not have any kind of problems to manage any script application that requires the instrument in order to function properly. In addition, we provide a few different versions of PHP, which means that if you change the version, you'll need to enable ionCube again. Our platform remembers the changes you make, so when you go back to the earlier version of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be turned on. Both the PHP version as well as the ionCube tool can be managed through the PHP Configuration section of our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. Any adjustment that you do takes literally just a single click and it will take effect without delay.

IonCube in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you purchase a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, you'll be able to employ any kind of script-driven app which needs ionCube Loader due to the fact that the software tool is available on all servers which are a part of our state-of-the-art cloud web hosting platform. Furthermore, we support different releases of PHP, so if you switch from PHP 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, for example, you can enable ionCube for this particular release with only a click in your Hepsia Control Panel. Our platform will remember your choice, and in case you switch back to the earlier release of PHP, the tool will already be active. For more tech-savvy users, we also offer the option to choose the PHP version and whether ionCube will be active or not for a specific domain without altering the settings for the entire hosting account. This can be done by putting a php.ini file within a domain folder with several lines of program code.
