Zend Server 5.0 Reduces Problem Resolution Time by up to 50 Percent; Adds Job Queue for Improved End-user Experience; Includes Support for PHP 5.3
Cupertino CA February 24 2010 -- Zend Technologies the PHP Company today announced the general availability of Zend Server 5.0 a major new version of the companyâs PHP Web application server. New Code Tracing technology in Zend Server 5.0 enables PHP developers and administrators to slash problem resolution time by up to 50%. For the first time users have visibility into the behavior of their code in production environments with the ability to pinpoint the root cause of application issues quickly and eliminate the time-consuming and sometimes near impossible task of recreating problems in order to resolve them.
Â
"Zend Server 5.0 is a huge step forward for businesses running business-critical PHP Web applicationsâ said Andi Gutmans CEO and co-founder at Zend. âWith this new version we are delivering application monitoring and diagnostics as part of the base application server at no additional cost. The new Code Tracing technology revolutionizes how businesses can reduce time spent on problem resolution. This and other enhancements will help businesses deliver reliable high-performance applications and maximize end-user satisfaction while reducing development and management time and costs."
ZEND SERVER 5.0 â ENTERPRISE-GRADE PHP WEB APPLICATION SERVER
Zend Server 5.0 optimizes application performance through multiple PHP caching and acceleration technologies helps detect and diagnose issues through application monitoring and provides a complete tested PHP application stack for Windows and Linux. The product is backed by expert technical support online updates hot fixes and security patches. Zend Server is fully integrated with the Zend Studio PHP IDE and Zend Framework the most popular open source PHP framework creating the fastest and easiest solution for developing and deploying reliable and secure Web applications. Also available is a free community edition of Zend Server.
INNOVATIVE CODE TRACING TECHNOLOGY
Zend Server 5.0 Code Tracing eliminates the need to recreate problems by automatically capturing in real-time the full execution history of an application in a production environment. Now developers can quickly find the root cause of a problem rather than following a lengthy error-prone process to reproduce it. Code Tracing can be activated manually or automatically when performance degrades or errors are detected through Zend Server application monitoring.
A new Zend Server view based on Adobe Flex provides visibility into recorded data showing a tree of function calls arguments errors and duration as well as statistical information that helps in identifying performance bottlenecks in production.
With Zend Server 5.0 PHP developers can cut troubleshooting time by up to 50% and ensure greater application reliability while recouping valuable time for programming tasks.
âI have saved up to four hours a day of debugging time using Code Tracing in Zend Server 5.0â said Drew Ewing a PHP programmer at CyberMark International. âFor 99.9% of the debug processes that Iâm concerned with Zend Server automatically gathers all of the necessary debug information that I used to gather manually. The countless hours I used to spend debugging transparent actions like jQuery updates are now freed up to tackle more important programming issues.â CyberMark is an Internet marketing firm that specializes in SEO and PPC programs social media marketing and website development.
INTEGRATED JOB QUEUE
Zend Server 5.0 Job Queue increases application performance and responsiveness by allowing jobs (PHP scripts) to be performed asynchronously or at recurring intervals offloading tasks from client initiated Web requests to secondary processing. End users experience snappy responses in their Web browsers while long-running jobs like credit card processing shipping and other activities proceed in the background. In addition maintenance tasks such as database cleanup and RSS feed pulls can be run at specific times or at recurring intervals. The Job Queue feature is fully integrated into the Zend Server monitoring system and Web console giving developers and other IT staff one place to monitor the overall execution of their applications including status of jobs.
"Zend Server 5.0 plays a strategic role in helping us ensure a quality online shopping experience for our customers even during peak traffic timesâ said Josh Butts director of Web development for Offers.com. âZend Server monitors our application and performs code tracing to tell us when things go wrong and why so we can quickly address issues as soon as they occur."
SUPPORT FOR PHP 5.3
Zend Server includes support for both PHP 5.2 and PHP 5.3 enabling programmers to take advantage of new language features such as namespaces and closures.
OPERATING SYSTEMS
Zend Server 5.0 supports Linux and Windows; an IBM i version is currently in beta.

CUPERTINO CA (PRWEB) February 16 2010 -- Zend Technologies Inc. today announced results from âState of PHP and Zend Framework Developmentâ a global online survey of the Zend Framework PHP developer community conducted in December 2009. Survey responses reflected a high level of satisfaction with Zend Framework across a diverse group ranging from independent consultants to organizations with 5000+ employees.
âThe Zend Framework Open-Source Project debuted only four years ago and already more than 70% of the developers are using it for business-critical applicationsâ said Zeev Suraski Chief Technology Officer at Zend Technologies. Survey results showed that Zend Framework is used by 58% of respondents for enterprise-level business critical-applications and by 16% for department-level business-critical applications.
In terms of a production environment 85% of PHP developers surveyed named Linux as their primary operating system while 11% named Windows and 2% named Mac OS X. When asked to name their primary operating system for development 42% named Windows versus 38.5% who chose Linux and 19.1% who chose Mac OS X. For these same development environments approximately 27% of respondents said they now use Zend Server and Zend Server Community Edition.
âWe are seeing rapid and broad-based adoption of the Zend Server technologies that we released last yearâ said Suraski. âAt the same time we are focused on integration of the framework development tools and run-time environment to provide the developer community with an end-to-end solution. We believe this will take the already highly productive nature of PHP to the next level.â
In other survey results close to 70% of respondents said they use Zend Studio or Eclipse PHP Development Tools (PDT) for development and 18% use Vim. Close to 50% of respondents reported using PHPUnit to perform unit testing.
Zend noted that 46% of respondents said they plan to obtain Zend Framework Certification joining close to 5% who are already certified. Developer Certification is increasingly viewed as a job market advantage a view that is reflected in growing demand for Zend training materials including webinars and online training. Zend has responded with a new Zend Framework training and certification bundle that enables novice and advanced PHP developers to become proficient in Zend Framework and achieve certification.
