UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It's a battery used to power some type of computer or a server to prevent the loss of information if the main source of energy fails for whatever reason or becomes unstable. A diesel generator practically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the power and to ensure the uninterrupted functioning of all of the web servers located there. Since the UPS runs all the time, it provides the desired power for the machines to remain working until the generator starts and takes over. Using this sort of a backup is essential for any data center or hosting company that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case there is a power surge or outage, as it gives them plenty of time to react until the issue is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
