UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems that are kept by web hosting companies inside their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the main power source or the current is unsound and unable to maintain the correct running of the web servers located inside the facility. UPS refers to Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it's an efficient battery that works non-stop. It is connected to both the electric power network and the servers at all times, so if the power stops, the UPS is already up and running, which helps prevent the servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is certainly an engine that can deliver the required energy to keep the machines operational for a longer period of time. In case of an outage, the UPS gives the required time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main power supply is restored.
