UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It's a battery which is used to power your personal computer or a server to prevent the loss of info when the main source of energy fails for whatever reason or becomes unstable. A diesel generator basically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power supply and to guarantee the continuous operation of all the web servers located there. Due to the fact that the UPS runs at all times, it provides the required power for the servers to remain functioning until the generator starts and takes over. Using this kind of a backup is a must for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case there is a power surge or outage, because it provides them with ample time to react until the issue is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
