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