The UPS and the diesel generator are two means for keeping a server working in case there are issues with the main power supply - an interruption or unstable current which cannot keep the machine functional, for instance. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, although it can often be called Uninterruptible Power Source as well. The UPS is, essentially, a powerful battery that's connected to the hosting server and to the power network constantly, so in case there is any disruption, it is already operating, which allows the web server to keep on operating without losing any info. The diesel generator is an engine that will power up the entire data center. It needs some time to start working and it is the UPS which gives it this time. Those 2 power solutions are fundamental for any facility or service provider that wants to prevent info loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected electrical power issue.
