UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
Learn more details on UPSs & diesel backup generators and learn why every hosting data center has them.
UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems that are kept by hosting providers in their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the main power source or the current is unsound and unable to maintain the correct functioning of the servers based inside the facility. UPS refers to Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a powerful battery that works non-stop. It is connected to both the electric power network and the servers all of the time, so when the power stops, the UPS is already functioning, which prevents the machines from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is an engine which can supply the needed power to keep the machines functioning 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 source is restored.
