UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It is a battery that is used to power a computer or a hosting server to prevent the loss of information when the main source of energy fails for reasons unknown 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 power and to guarantee the consistent running of all the machines located there. As the UPS runs constantly, it provides the desired power for the machines to remain working until the generator starts and takes over. Using this sort of a backup is crucial for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in the case of a power surge or outage, because it gives them plenty of time to react until the problem is resolved and the main power supply is restored.
