Zend Unlimited Subscription for IBM i
Recently available for the IBM i platform, the Zend Unlimited Subscription offers a simpler way to acquire the enhanced features and support offered for Zend Server and Zend Studio on IBM i while maintaining control of your software budget. Companies get an unlimited number of subscriptions at a fixed price that is typically lower than buying many subscriptions a la carte. This flexibility enables users to standardize development environments, quickly scale up PHP server instances, and initiate new application projects all without having to worry about purchasing additional licenses.
