UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems which are kept by hosting providers in their data centers in the event that there are interruptions in the main power source or the current is unstable and unable to maintain the proper operation of the servers based in the facility. UPS refers to Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is an effective battery which works non-stop. It is connected to both the power network and the servers all of the time, so in case the power stops, the UPS is already operational, which prevents the web servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is certainly an engine that can provide the required power to keep the web servers working for a longer period of time. If there is an outage, the UPS gives the required time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main power supply is restored.
