UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator
UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator - what is their role and why are they available in data center facilities around the world?
UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It's a battery which is used to power a computer or a web server in order to avoid the loss of data in case the main power source fails for some reason or becomes unsafe. A diesel generator basically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power and to guarantee the consistent operation of all the servers located there. Due to the fact that the UPS works at all times, it offers the desired power for the servers to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using such a backup is vital for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in the case of a power surge or outage, due to the fact that it provides them with enough time to react until the issue is resolved and the main power supply is restored.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Cloud Website Hosting
The 99.9% network and server uptime warranty that we provide you with is, somewhat, a result of the electrical power backup setup we have in each of the three data centers in which we provide
cloud website hosting plans - in Chicago (USA), in Coventry (UK), and in Sydney (Australia). If you obtain a new account to create or move your sites, it shall be set up on a modern cloud platform that consists of many clusters taking care of your content. Each and every web server in the selected cluster offers its own effective enterprise-class UPS to keep it operational no matter what, until a number of power generators boot up and provide the necessary power for the entire center to be operating for several hours. You won't notice anything even if there's an interruption, due to the fact that our backup units will be able to power all the devices and we won't need to restrict the total number of working hosting servers or the network equipment which manages the traffic to your sites.
