UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. This is a battery which is used to power your personal computer or a web server in order to avoid the loss of information when the main source of energy fails for whatever reason or becomes unstable. A diesel generator practically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the main power source and to ensure the uninterrupted running of all of the web servers located there. Since the UPS operates constantly, it provides the necessary power for the web servers to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using this kind of a backup is crucial for any data center or service provider that wants to keep their hardware and information intact in case of a power surge or outage, because it provides them with ample time to react until the problem is resolved and the main power supply is restored.
