The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 instruments for keeping a web server functional in case there are difficulties with the primary power supply - a disruption or shaky current that can't keep the web server functional, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, although it is frequently referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source also.

The diesel generator is an engine that can power up an entire data center. It does take some time to start working and it's the UPS which provides this time. Those 2 power solutions are a requirement for any facility or provider that wants to prevent info loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected electrical power issue.
