Cut Risk With Enterprise PHP Support

Why Risk Downtime?

Make sure that your websites and mobile apps are always available by taking advantage of the long-term PHP support that comes with Zend Server.

And if you prefer to use open source technologies, you can get enterprise support for select open source stacks that include Zend Server, through an offering called Zend Server Plus.

What’s Your Plan When PHP 7.1 Is End of Life?

Community support for PHP 7.1 ends in December 2019. If you use PHP 7.1, you can:

• Upgrade your PHP applications to 7.3 to retain community support.
• Keep your applications on PHP 7.1 and risk security breaches and downtime.
• Keep your applications on PHP 7.1 and get long-term support via Zend Server.

The Risks of Unsupported PHP 7.1 Apps in Production

Once community support is officially dropped for PHP 7.1, the release cadence for security fixes and other bugs becomes unpredictable. Without timely security fixes, your applications will be vulnerable to attacks. And bugs that create instability issues can both jeopardize user experience and put your application-availability SLAs at risk.

If you do get the required software patches, then you will need to test your apps before releasing them into production. However, test cycles for applications developed more than five years ago often require significantly more time than recently-created applications, which further drives up risk.

Zend Server Provides Built-In Support for PHP 7.1

Ensure your applications have vulnerabilities and other issues patched as quickly as possible. Get the level of support you need for your PHP 7.1 applications by running Zend Server.
