UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That's a battery which is used to power your personal computer or a web server in order to avoid the loss of data in case the main power supply fails for whatever reason or becomes risky. A diesel generator pretty much self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the main power source and to guarantee the consistent functioning of all of the web servers located there. As the UPS operates all the time, it offers the necessary power for the web servers to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using this sort of a backup is essential for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case there is a power surge or outage, due to the fact that it gives them ample time to react until the problem is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
