UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That is a battery used to power a personal computer or a web server to avoid the loss of data if the main source of energy fails for whatever reason or becomes unsafe. A diesel generator is more or less self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the main power source and to ensure the constant functioning of all the servers located there. Because the UPS works constantly, it provides the necessary power for the servers to remain up and running until the generator starts and takes over. Using such a backup is a must for any data center or provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case there is a power surge or outage, because it gives them ample time to react until the problem is resolved and the main power supply is restored.

In addition, our data centers in the U.S., in the United Kingdom and in Australia have a number of generators that boot up for minutes and that will be able to power all of the servers for an extensive stretch of time. In this way, the overall performance of your websites or their loading speed shall not be affected, so you may enjoy an uninterrupted high-quality hosting service constantly.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you get a semi-dedicated server account from our company, it shall be created on a cutting-edge hosting platform inside a data center with an excellent infrastructure. The Chicago-based data center uses a separate UPS for each and every hosting server or network switch located there to make certain that the correct functioning of any piece of equipment won't be disturbed until powerful generators start supplying the required electric power. The latter are able to power the entire center for quite a while without having to shut down any equipment, so all of the Internet sites hosted on our machines shall continue to work at max speed and without any effect on their functionality. These electric power backup options enable us to ensure that a possible outage will never be a reason for your websites to go offline or to have reduced functionality.
