UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. It is a battery that is used to power a PC or a server in order to avoid the loss of info if the main source of energy fails for some reason or becomes unstable. A diesel generator is more or less self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the power supply and to guarantee the constant running of all of the machines located there.

Using this sort of a backup is a must for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and information intact in case there is a power surge or outage, as it offers them enough time to react until the problem is resolved and the main power supply is restored.
