The UPS and the diesel generator are 2 devices for keeping a web server working in case there are problems with the primary power source - a disruption or unstable current which cannot keep the hosting server functioning properly, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it is oftentimes referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, basically, an effective battery which is attached to the server and to the power network at all times, so in the event of any interruption, it is already operating, that permits the hosting server to keep on working without losing any information. The diesel generator is an engine that can power up a whole data center. It needs some time to begin working and it is the UPS which gives it that time. Those 2 power solutions are absolutely essential for any facility or provider that wants to avoid data loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected electric power problem.

The 99.9% network and server uptime warranty which we offer you is, in part, a result of the electric power backup setup we have in each of the three data centers in which we offer web hosting plans - in Chicago (USA), in Coventry (UK), and in Sydney (Australia). If you purchase a new account to develop or move your sites, it shall be set up on a cutting-edge cloud platform that consists of numerous clusters handling your content. Each web server in the selected cluster offers its own effective enterprise-class UPS to keep it functioning no matter what, until quite a few electrical power generators boot up and give the necessary power for the whole center to stay operating for a lot of hours. You will not notice anything even in the event there is a disruption, since our backup units can power all the devices and we won't have to limit the quantity of working hosting servers or the network equipment which deals with the traffic to your Internet sites.
UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you purchase a semi-dedicated server account from us, it'll be created on a cutting-edge hosting platform within a data center with a superb infrastructure. The Chicago-based facility uses an independent UPS for each server or network switch located there to make certain that the ideal functioning of any unit won't be disrupted until powerful generators start supplying the needed electricity. The latter will be able to power the entire center for quite a long time without having to turn off any machines, so each of the websites hosted on our web servers will continue to work at max speed and with zero effect on their performance. These electrical power backup options allow us to ensure that a potential outage will never be a reason for your Internet sites to go offline or to have reduced functionality.
