The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 devices for keeping a server functional if there are difficulties with the primary power source - a disruption or shaky current that can't keep the machine functional, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, even though it is frequently referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, essentially, a highly effective battery which is connected to the machine and to the electric power network all of the time, so in case there is any disturbance, it is already functioning, that permits the web server to keep on running without losing any data. The diesel generator is an engine which can power up the entire data center. It needs some time to begin working and it is the UPS which gives it that time. These two power solutions are absolutely essential for any facility or hosting company that wants to avoid info loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected electric power issue.
