UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It's a battery used to power your personal computer or a hosting server to prevent the loss of info when the main source of energy fails for some reason or becomes unsafe. A diesel generator pretty much self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power and to guarantee the consistent operation of all of the machines located there. As the UPS works constantly, it provides the required power for the web servers to remain working until the generator starts and takes over. Using such a backup is crucial for any data center or service provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case there is a power surge or outage, as it gives them ample time to react until the issue is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
