The UPS and the diesel generator are two devices for keeping a web server functioning in case there are issues with the main source - an interruption or shaky current that can't keep the server functional, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it is sometimes referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, essentially, a powerful battery that is connected to the hosting server and to the electricity network all the time, so in the event of any disruption, it is already functioning, which enables the hosting server to continue operating without losing any data. The diesel generator is an engine that will power up an entire data center. It does take some time to begin working and it is the UPS that provides that time. Those 2 power solutions are fundamental for any facility or hosting company that wants to avoid info loss and hardware damage as a result of an unexpected electrical power problem.
