UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems which are kept by hosting service providers inside their data centers in the event that there are interruptions in the primary power supply or the current is unsound and unable to sustain the appropriate running of the machines located inside the facility. UPS is short for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a highly effective battery that works non-stop. It is connected to both the power network and the servers constantly, so anytime the power stops, the UPS is already functioning, which prevents the web servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is definitely an engine that can provide you with the needed electric power 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 main power source is restored.
