The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 means for keeping a server functioning in case there are difficulties with the primary power supply - an outage or unstable current that can't keep the server functioning properly, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it is oftentimes called Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, in simple terms, an effective battery which is connected to the web server and to the electric power network at all times, so in case of any disruption, it's already functioning, which allows the hosting server to carry on running without losing any information. The diesel generator is an engine that can power up an entire data center. It does take some time to start working and it is the UPS which gives it that time. Those two power solutions are fundamental for any facility or provider that wants to avoid info loss and hardware damage caused by an unexpected electric power issue.
