UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems which are kept by website hosting providers in their data centers in the event that there are interruptions in the main power supply or the current is unsound and unable to maintain the proper running of the machines situated inside the facility. UPS is short for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it's a highly effective battery which works non-stop. It is connected to both the power network and the servers at all times, so anytime the power stops, the UPS is already operational, which helps prevent the web servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is certainly an engine that can give you the necessary power to keep the machines up and running for a longer period of time. In case of an outage, the UPS provides the necessary time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main source is restored.
