UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems which are kept by hosting providers within their data centers in case there are interruptions in the primary power supply or the current is unstable and unable to maintain the appropriate operation of the web servers located within the facility. UPS refers to Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it's an efficient battery that works non-stop. It is connected to both the power network and the servers at all times, so anytime the power stops, the UPS is already up and running, which prevents the machines from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is literally an engine which can deliver the necessary energy to keep the web servers operational for a longer period of time. In the case of an outage, the UPS gives the needed time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the primary source is restored.
