UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
What's a UPS unit? What precisely a diesel backup generator? For what reason are they present in each and every data center?
UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That is a battery used to power a personal computer or a server to prevent the loss of information in case the main power source fails for whatever reason or becomes risky. A diesel generator is more or less self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power and to ensure the uninterrupted running of all the machines located there. Since the UPS runs constantly, it provides the required power for the servers to remain functioning until the generator starts and takes over. Using this sort of a backup is vital for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and info intact in case there is a power surge or outage, due to the fact that it provides them with plenty of time to react until the problem is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.
