[MickeyZend]

We’re excited to release Zend Server 2018, providing performance improvements over PHP 5.x with support for PHP 7.2. This release is loaded with new features to revolutionize web development and accelerate deployment speeds, including multiple deployment options, better visibility into caching, and improved support.

Zend Server 2018 offers:
• Support for PHP 7.2
• Ability to run your new application version alongside the current version in production using Selective Deployment and A/B Testing
• Greater insight for optimizing your application performance with Data Cache Pulse and Page Cache Pulse
• Support for numerous Virtual Hosts that are attached to the same codebase, saving deployment and maintenance time
• Enhanced scalability with PHP in FastCGI Process Manager (FPM) mode
• Ability to centrally run, manage, and monitor all asynchronous jobs for both web and CLI in PHP or any other language
For a full description of all the enhancements and additions in Zend Server 2018, read what's new.

IBMi - to be released very soon - stay tuned.

If you haven’t experienced the performance and memory improvements of PHP 7 yet, there’s no better time.
