IonCube
What precisely is IonCube? Why is it present on almost any present-day hosting server running PHP?
IonCube Loader is a software tool, which is required to run files which are encrypted with ionCube PHP Encoder. The aforementioned is an application that is used to make PHP code human unreadable, as a way to protect it from reverse engineering or not authorized usage. A large number of script-driven apps, particularly forums, content management systems and electronic commerce solutions are encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, which means that when you get a script and you notice that ionCube is one of the website hosting environment requirements, you have to ensure that your website hosting server has the instrument pre-installed. While it is not that difficult to install it when you have your own server, it's almost impossible to do that on a shared web hosting server because the PHP environment will have to be precompiled and all clients on the server shall be affected.

IonCube in Shared Web Hosting
When you obtain a
Linux shared web hosting package from us, it will be created on our tailor-made cloud hosting platform where ionCube Loader is already installed, so you won't have any kind of problems to manage any script application which needs the tool in order to run appropriately. Furthermore, we provide a few different versions of PHP, so in case you switch the version, you'll have to activate ionCube again. Our system remembers the adjustments you make, so if you move back to the earlier version of PHP that was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be enabled. The PHP version and the ionCube tool can be managed from the PHP Configuration part of our Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. Each change that you do takes literally just a click and it'll take effect right away.
