UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That is a battery used to power your personal computer or a web server to avoid the loss of data in case the main power supply fails for whatever reason or becomes unstable. A diesel generator basically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the power supply and to ensure the consistent functioning of all of the servers located there. Due to the fact that the UPS works all the time, it provides the necessary power for the web servers to remain working until the generator starts and takes over. Using such a backup is a must for any data center or web hosting provider that wants to keep their hardware and information intact in case there is a power surge or outage, as it gives them enough time to react until the problem is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
