UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems that are kept by hosting companies inside their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the main power supply or the current is unstable and unable to support the proper functioning of the web servers based within the facility. UPS is short for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a highly effective battery which works non-stop. It's connected to both the electric power network and the servers consistently, so when the power stops, the UPS is already operational, which helps prevent the web servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is definitely an engine which can deliver the necessary energy to keep the web servers up and running for a longer period of time. In case there is an outage, the UPS provides the necessary time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main power supply is restored.
