UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That's a battery which is used to power a PC or a hosting server in order to avoid the loss of information in case the main source of energy fails for some reason or becomes risky. A diesel generator pretty much self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the power supply and to guarantee the constant running of all the machines located there. Since the UPS runs all the time, it offers the desired power for the servers to remain functioning 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 the case of a power surge or outage, as it offers them lots of time to react until the problem is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
