IonCube Loader is a software tool, which is required to run files that are encrypted with ionCube PHP Encoder. The aforementioned is an application employed to make PHP code human unreadable, so as to protect it from reverse engineering and not authorized use. Many script-driven applications, in particular online forums, cms and electronic commerce solutions are encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, so if you acquire a script and you notice that ionCube is one of the web hosting environment prerequisites, you have to ensure that your web hosting server has the tool pre-installed. Though it is not that difficult to install it if you have your own server, it's close to impossible to do that on a shared hosting server for the reason that the PHP environment should be precompiled and all clients on the server will be affected.

IonCube in Cloud Hosting

When you buy a Linux cloud hosting from our company, it'll be set up on our in-house built cloud hosting platform where ionCube Loader is already present, so you will not have any problems to manage any script app which needs the instrument to run properly. We also supply a few different releases of PHP, which means that in case you change the version, you need to activate ionCube once again. Our system remembers the adjustments you make, and when you go back to the previous version of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be turned on. The PHP version as well as the ionCube tool can be managed through the PHP Configuration area of our Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Each adjustment that you make takes literally just a mouse-click and it will take effect at once.
