The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 means for keeping a server operational in case there are troubles with the primary power source - an interruption or unstable current which cannot keep the hosting server working correctly, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, although it can often be referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, in simple terms, a highly effective battery which is connected to the server and to the power network all of the time, so if there is any interruption, it is already operating, which allows the server to carry on running without losing any info. The diesel generator is an engine that will power up the entire data center. It needs some time to start working and it is the UPS which provides this time. Those 2 power solutions are fundamental for any facility or service provider that wants to avoid data loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected electrical power problem.
