The UPS and the diesel generator are two devices for keeping a server working if there are problems with the main power source - an outage or shaky current which cannot keep the web server working properly, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it is frequently referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, in simple terms, a powerful battery that's connected to the hosting server and to the power network all the time, so in case of any blackout, it's already functioning, which enables the hosting server to continue running without losing any data. The diesel generator is an engine which will power up the whole data center. It needs some time to start working and it's the UPS which provides that time. These 2 power solutions are fundamental for any facility or provider that wants to prevent info loss and hardware damage resulting from an unexpected power problem.
