UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator - what exactly is their role and why are they available in data center facilities all over the world?
The UPS and the diesel generator are two instruments for keeping a web server functional in case there are troubles with the main power supply - an interruption or unstable current that cannot keep the machine working correctly, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it is oftentimes called Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, in essence, an efficient battery that is attached to the server and to the electric power network at all times, so if there is any disturbance, it's already working, that permits the server to carry on doing the job without losing any information. The diesel generator is an engine that can power up the whole data center. It needs some time to begin working and it is the UPS which provides this time. These two power solutions are an absolute necessity for any facility or provider that wants to avoid data loss and hardware damage resulting from an unexpected electrical power problem.
