The UPS and the diesel generator are two instruments for keeping a web server functioning in case there are troubles with the primary power source - an outage or shaky current that can't keep the machine functioning properly, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, even though it is frequently referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, essentially, an efficient battery which is connected to the hosting server and to the power network all of the time, so in case of any blackout, it is already operating, which allows the server to continue running without losing any info. The diesel generator is an engine which will power up a whole data center. It needs some time to begin working and it is the UPS which gives it that time. These 2 power solutions are a requirement for any facility or hosting company that wants to stop info loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected power issue.
UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Hosting
The 99.9% network and hosting server uptime guarantee which we provide you with is, somewhat, a result of the power backup setup which we have in each of the three data centers in which we provide hosting packages - in Chicago (USA), in Coventry (UK), and in Sydney (Australia). If you get a new account to create or move your websites, it will be created on a progressive cloud platform which consists of several clusters taking care of your content. Every single web server within the selected cluster features its own efficient enterprise-class UPS to keep it operational no matter what, until a number of electric power generators boot up and provide the necessary power for the whole facility to remain operating for a lot of hours. You won't notice anything even in case there is a disruption, since our backup units will power each of the devices and we won't need to reduce the total number of working web servers or the network equipment which manages the traffic to your Internet sites.
