Zend Core™ supports businesses using PHP and managing database information for mission critical web applications. It provides a seamless out-of-the-box experience delivering a stable, easy to-install and supported PHP development and production environment.

Presented in a browser-based environment, Zend Core provides a highly stable and efficient means for installing and managing PHP servers. Resources and reference information are bundled into Zend Core for “one click” access to a wide range of information, configurations and reference documents.

Using Zend Core ensures that organizations work with a stable, certified, binary distribution of PHP. In other words, Zend Core provides a constantly supported and updated generic code base. An organization’s PHP will therefore be easily understood so that newcomers or external consultants can quickly get up to speed with the new environment.
