UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It's a battery that is used to power some type of computer or a server to avoid the loss of data when the main source of energy fails for reasons unknown or becomes unsafe. A diesel generator practically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power supply and to ensure the consistent functioning of all of the machines located there. As the UPS runs all the time, it provides the required power for the web servers to remain operational until the generator starts and takes over. Using such a backup is crucial for any data center or web hosting provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case there is a power surge or outage, as it offers them ample time to react until the problem is resolved and the main power supply is restored.
