UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator - what exactly is their role and why are they available in data centers all around the world?
UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems that are kept by hosting service providers inside their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the primary power source or the current is unstable and unable to sustain the proper operation of the servers based within the facility. UPS stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a powerful battery that works non-stop. It's connected to both the electrical power network and the web servers all of the time, so if the power stops, the UPS is already operational, which helps prevent the machines from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is certainly an engine that can deliver the required electric power to keep the servers operational for a longer period of time. In case of an outage, the UPS gives the needed time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main power supply is restored.
