UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator - what is their job and why are they available in data centers all around the globe?
The UPS and the diesel generator are two devices for keeping a web server working if there are issues with the main power source - an interruption or shaky current that cannot keep the machine functioning properly, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it is sometimes referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source also. The UPS is, in simple terms, a powerful battery that is attached to the machine and to the electricity network at all times, so in case there is any disturbance, it is already working, which allows the server to carry on running without losing any info. 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 two power solutions are a requirement for any facility or service provider that wants to stop data loss and hardware damage caused by an unexpected electric power issue.
