UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems that are kept by website hosting companies within their data centers in the event that there are interruptions in the primary power source or the current is shaky and unable to support the appropriate running of the web servers situated within the facility. UPS refers to Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is an efficient battery that works non-stop. It's connected to both the electrical power network and the web servers all of the time, so if the power stops, the UPS is already working, which prevents the machines from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is definitely an engine which can supply the necessary power to keep the web servers up and running for a longer period of time. In case of 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.
