UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems that are kept by hosting companies inside their data centers in case there are interruptions in the main power supply or the current is unstable and unable to support the appropriate operation of the machines situated in the facility. UPS stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is an effective battery that works non-stop. It is connected to both the power network and the web servers consistently, so in case the power stops, the UPS is already up and running, which prevents the servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is literally an engine that can supply the necessary electrical power to keep the web servers operational for a longer period of time. In case there is an outage, the UPS provides the required time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the primary power source is restored.
