UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems which are kept by hosting companies inside their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the primary power supply or the current is unsound and unable to maintain the correct running of the machines based within the facility. UPS is short for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is an efficient battery which works non-stop. It's connected to both the electric power network and the servers at all times, so if the power stops, the UPS is already working, which helps prevent the web servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is certainly an engine that can deliver the necessary electrical power to keep the servers working for a longer period of time. In the event of an outage, the UPS gives the required time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main power source is restored.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Cloud Website Hosting

If you host your sites within a cloud website hosting account with our company, you can forget about issues caused by electric power failures, simply because, different from many other providers, we don't keep several servers attached to one UPS. Alternatively, each individual server which is part of our avant-garde cloud platform comes with its own UPS device which will keep it operational for a long time. In addition, our data centers in the U.S., in the United Kingdom and in Australia have multiple generators which boot up for minutes and which can power each of the hosting servers for an extensive length of time. In this way, the performance of your Internet sites or their loading speed will not be affected, so you are able to enjoy an uninterrupted high-quality service all of the time.

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

If you get a semi-dedicated server account from us, it shall be created on a cutting-edge hosting platform in a data center with an incredible infrastructure. The Chicago-based data center uses a different UPS for each server or network switch located there to ensure that the correct functioning of any piece of equipment will not be disturbed until powerful generators start producing the necessary electrical power. The latter will be able to power the whole facility for quite a while without having to turn off any equipment, so all of the sites hosted on our hosting servers shall continue to operate at optimum speed and with zero 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 lowered functionality.
