UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That is a battery that is used to power a personal computer or a hosting server in order to avoid the loss of data when the main power source fails for some reason or becomes unstable. A diesel generator practically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power supply and to ensure the consistent running of all the web servers located there. Since the UPS works constantly, it provides the desired power for the web servers to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using this kind of a backup is essential for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case of a power surge or outage, as it gives them lots of time to react until the issue is resolved and the main power supply is restored.
