UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems which are kept by website hosting service providers inside their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the primary power source or the current is unsound and unable to maintain the appropriate functioning of the machines located within the facility. UPS is short for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a highly effective battery that works non-stop. It's connected to both the power network and the servers at all times, so if the power stops, the UPS is already functioning, which helps prevent the web servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is literally an engine which can deliver the needed electric power to keep the machines working for a longer period of time. In case there is an outage, the UPS gives the required time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main power source is restored.
