UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator - what is their function and why are they available in data center facilities all over the world?
The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 devices for keeping a web server working if there are troubles with the main source - an interruption or unstable current that cannot keep the server functional, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, even though it is sometimes referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, in essence, an efficient battery that's connected to the hosting server and to the power network constantly, so in case there is any disruption, it's already working, that permits the hosting server to continue doing the job without losing any info. The diesel generator is an engine that will power up the whole data center. It does take some time to begin working and it's the UPS which gives it that time. These 2 power solutions are absolutely essential for any facility or service provider that wants to stop information loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected power problem.
