Zend Server is all about enabling the PHP language, which itself is now in midst of one of its biggest milestone developments in years, with PHP 7. Gutmans commented that PHP 7 is now in beta and his company is starting to focus its efforts on supporting Zend Server on PHP 7.
“It’s early but we’re making good progress and are prioritizing the effort,” Gutmans said. “We think the combination of PHP 7 and Zend Server’s Enterprise assurance and capabilities will make a major impact in the dynamic language landscape.”
