UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems which are kept by hosting providers within their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the main power source or the current is shaky and unable to sustain the proper operation of the web servers situated within the facility. UPS refers to 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 web 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 which can supply the necessary electric power to keep the servers working for a longer period of time. In the case of an outage, the UPS gives the needed time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main source is restored.
