UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
What's a UPS unit? What exactly is a diesel backup generator? For what reason are they present in every single data center facility?
The UPS and the diesel generator are two means for keeping a web server functioning in case there are issues with the primary source - an outage or unstable current which cannot keep the hosting server working correctly, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, although it is oftentimes referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source also. The UPS is, in simple terms, an effective battery which is attached to the hosting server and to the electricity network all the time, so in case of any blackout, it is already working, that permits the hosting server to carry on working without losing any data. The diesel generator is an engine that will power up the whole data center. It needs some time to start working and it's the UPS that gives it that time. These two power solutions are fundamental for any facility or hosting company that wants to prevent information loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected power problem.
