UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems which are kept by web hosting providers within their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the primary power supply or the current is unstable and unable to maintain the proper running of the web servers based inside the facility. UPS stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is an efficient battery that works non-stop. It's connected to both the power network and the servers all of the time, so in case the power stops, the UPS is already working, which helps prevent the servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is definitely an engine that can provide you with the necessary energy to keep the web servers working for a longer period of time. In case of an outage, the UPS provides the necessary time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the primary power supply is restored.
