UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
What's a UPS unit? What is a diesel backup generator? For what reason are they found in every data center?
UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. This is a battery used to power a personal computer or a server to avoid the loss of data when the main source of energy fails for whatever reason or becomes unstable. A diesel generator practically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the power and to ensure the continuous operation of all of the servers located there. Because the UPS operates all the time, it provides the required power for the servers to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using this kind of a backup is vital for any data center or web hosting provider that wants to keep their hardware and information intact in case there is a power surge or outage, since it provides them with lots of time to react until the problem is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
