UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. This is a battery that is used to power your personal computer or a web server to prevent the loss of information when the main power supply fails for whatever reason or becomes unsafe. A diesel generator pretty much self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are used as a backup in data centers to back up the power and to guarantee the constant functioning of all the web servers located there. Because the UPS runs at all times, it offers the necessary power for the web servers to remain operational until the generator starts and takes over. Using this type of a backup is critical for any data center or service provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in the event of a power surge or outage, since it provides them with lots of time to react until the problem is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Shared Hosting

The 99.9% network and server uptime guarantee that we offer you is, somewhat, a result of the power backup setup which we have in every of the three data centers in which we offer shared hosting packages - in Chicago (USA), in Coventry (UK), and in Sydney (Australia). If you get a new account to develop or move your Internet sites, it shall be created on a cutting-edge cloud platform which consists of many clusters controlling your content. Every single server within the given cluster offers its own effective enterprise-class UPS to keep it working no matter what, until a number of electric power generators boot up and provide the necessary power for the whole data center to remain functional for several hours. You'll not notice anything even in case there's an outage, as our backup units can power all of the devices and we will not have to limit the quantity of working web servers or the network equipment that manages the traffic to your sites.

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

The semi-dedicated server accounts we offer you are created inside a state-of-the-art data center in the town center of Chicago and its electric power backup system is among the reasons why we can afford to guarantee a 99.9% uptime for both the web servers that are part of our highly developed web hosting platform and the network that deals with all of the traffic to and from them. An individual UPS unit is attached to every single server to keep it online until numerous generators kick in. The latter are efficient enough to deliver electrical power for the whole facility for many hours without having to restrict the power consumption or the overall performance of any web server or network device, so even when there is a disruption, all of the sites hosted on our platform will still be accessible without any interruptions and will operate at top speed.
