The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 instruments for keeping a web server working in case there are issues with the primary power supply - an outage or unreliable current that can't keep the hosting server working properly, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it can often be called Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, basically, an effective battery that's connected to the web server and to the electricity network constantly, so in the event of any disruption, it's already functioning, which enables the hosting server to continue operating without losing any data. The diesel generator is an engine that can power up the whole data center. It does take some time to start working and it is the UPS that gives it this time. Those 2 power solutions are a necessity for any facility or hosting company that wants to prevent data loss and hardware damage as a result of an unexpected electric power issue.
