UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
Discover more details on UPSs & diesel backup generators and learn why every hosting data center includes them.
UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It is a battery used to power a PC or a web server in order to avoid the loss of info when the main power supply fails for whatever reason or becomes risky. A diesel generator basically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power supply and to guarantee the consistent functioning of all the machines located there. Since the UPS operates at all times, it offers the desired power for the servers to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using this kind of a backup is essential for any data center or web hosting provider that wants to keep their hardware and info intact in the event of a power surge or outage, due to the fact that it provides them with plenty of time to react until the problem is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
