UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems which are kept by website hosting service providers inside their data centers in case there are interruptions in the main power supply or the current is unsound and unable to maintain the correct operation of the machines based in the facility. UPS refers to Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it's a powerful battery that works non-stop. It's connected to both the power network and the web servers all of the time, so in case the power stops, the UPS is already working, which prevents the servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is definitely an engine that can supply the required energy to keep the machines operational for a longer period of time. In the case of an outage, the UPS gives the necessary time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main power supply is restored.
