The UPS and the diesel generator are two means for keeping a web server operational in case there are problems with the main power supply - a disruption or unstable current which cannot keep the hosting server functional, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, although it is oftentimes called Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, in essence, an efficient battery that's attached to the server and to the electric power network all the time, so in the case of any disturbance, it's already functioning, that permits the web server to keep on running without losing any data. The diesel generator is an engine which will power up the whole data center. It needs some time to start working and it's the UPS which provides that time. These two power solutions are absolutely essential for any facility or service provider that wants to prevent information loss and hardware damage resulting from an unexpected power problem.
