UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
Know more details on UPSs & diesel backup generators and discover why each hosting data center offers them.
The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 devices for keeping a server functional if there are troubles with the main source - a disruption or unreliable current that cannot keep the machine functional, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, although it is sometimes called Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, essentially, an efficient battery that's connected to the machine and to the electricity network all of the time, so in case there is any interruption, it's already operating, that permits the hosting server to continue operating without losing any info. The diesel generator is an engine that will power up the whole data center. It does take some time to begin working and it's the UPS which provides this time. Those 2 power solutions are fundamental for any facility or hosting company that wants to avoid info loss and hardware damage as a result of an unexpected electric power problem.
