The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 instruments for keeping a web server functional in case there are problems with the main power supply - a disruption or shaky current that cannot keep the web server working properly, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, although it is oftentimes referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, in essence, a powerful battery which is attached to the machine and to the power network consistently, so in the event of any blackout, it is already functioning, that permits the hosting server to keep on doing the job without losing any info. The diesel generator is an engine which can power up the whole data center. It needs some time to start working and it's the UPS that provides this time. Those two power solutions are fundamental for any facility or service provider that wants to prevent info loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected power issue.
