About

For nearly twenty years, Zend has helped evolve the PHP language and influence how it is used by global leaders, tracing back to when co-founders Andi Gutmans and Zeev Suraski created PHP 3 in 1997 and founded Zend Technologies in 1999 alongside PHP 4 and the Zend Engine. In 2006 Zend Technologies released Zend Framework, an open source solution for web application deployment, before being acquired by Rogue Wave Software in 2015; Rogue Wave transitioned Zend Framework to the independent Laminas open source project in 2019. Today the Zend brand operates under Perforce Software, providing enterprise PHP runtimes and support.
