UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
What is a UPS unit? What exactly is a diesel backup generator? Why are they present in every data center?
UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It's a battery that is used to power some type of computer or a hosting server to prevent the loss of data if the main source of energy fails for whatever reason or becomes unsafe. A diesel generator basically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the main power source and to guarantee the consistent operation of all the web servers located there. As the UPS operates constantly, it offers the desired power for the machines to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using such a backup is a must for any data center or web hosting provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in the event of a power surge or outage, since it provides them with lots of time to react until the issue is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
