UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It's a battery which is used to power a computer or a hosting server in order to avoid the loss of info if the main power supply fails for some reason or becomes risky. A diesel generator practically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the power and to guarantee the continuous running of all the web servers located there. As the UPS operates constantly, it offers the necessary power for the machines to remain operational until the generator starts and takes over. Using this kind of a backup is vital for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and info intact in case of a power surge or outage, due to the fact that it offers them ample time to react until the issue is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
