UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
What's a UPS unit? What is a diesel backup generator? Why are they present in every data center?
The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 means for keeping a web server working if there are problems with the main power supply - an interruption or unstable current that cannot keep the server functioning properly, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, even though it is oftentimes referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, in essence, an efficient battery that is connected to the web server and to the electricity network consistently, so if there is any disturbance, it's already functioning, that permits the server to continue working without losing any data. The diesel generator is an engine which will power up the entire data center. It needs some time to start working and it's the UPS that provides this time. These two power solutions are a necessity for any facility or hosting company that wants to avoid data loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected power problem.
