The UPS and the diesel generator are two devices for keeping a web server working if there are issues with the primary source - an outage or shaky current that cannot keep the hosting server functioning properly, for example. UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply, though it can often be referred to as Uninterruptible Power Source too. The UPS is, essentially, a powerful battery that's connected to the server and to the power network all of the time, so if there is any disruption, it is already functioning, which enables the hosting server to keep on running without losing any info. The diesel generator is an engine which will power up a whole data center. It needs some time to start working and it is the UPS that provides this time. Those 2 power solutions are fundamental for any facility or hosting company that wants to prevent info loss and hardware damage as a consequence of an unexpected electric power issue.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Shared Hosting

If you host your Internet sites within a shared hosting account with our company, you'll be able to forget about issues caused by electrical power blackouts, due to the fact that, unlike various other providers, we do not keep many different servers attached to a single UPS. Rather, each individual machine that is part of our avant-garde cloud platform has its own UPS device that will keep it working for many hours. Furthermore, our data centers in the United States, in the United Kingdom and in Australia have numerous generators that boot up for minutes and which will be able to power all the web servers for an extensive amount of time. In this way, the features of your Internet sites or their loading speed won't be affected, so you may enjoy an uninterrupted high-quality web hosting service all of the time.

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

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 fantastic infrastructure. The Chicago-based data center uses a different UPS for each and every web server or network switch located there to make sure that the correct functioning of any piece of equipment won't be interrupted until efficient generators start supplying the needed electric power. The latter will power the entire data center for quite a while without the need to shut down any machines, so all of the websites hosted on our web servers will continue to operate at max speed and with no effect on their performance. These electrical power backup options enable us to ensure that a possible outage will never be a reason for your Internet sites to go offline or to have lowered functionality.
