UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems that are kept by hosting companies inside their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the primary power supply or the current is unsound and unable to maintain the appropriate functioning of the web servers situated in the facility. UPS stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a highly effective battery which works non-stop. It's connected to both the power network and the web servers all of the time, so anytime the power stops, the UPS is already up and running, which helps prevent the web servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is an engine which can deliver the required energy to keep the machines operational for a longer period of time. In case there is an outage, the UPS provides the required time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the primary power supply is restored.
