PHP tool company Zend Technologies on Monday named former BMC Software executive Harold Goldberg as CEO.

In a statement, Goldberg said that the venture-backed company is on a "sharp growth trajectory being fueled by both the acceptance of open source, and the trend toward new, service oriented programming models."
