UPSs and diesel generators are 2 backup systems which are kept by web hosting service providers within their data centers in the event there are interruptions in the main power supply or the current is unstable and unable to sustain the proper functioning of the web servers located in the facility. UPS is short for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a powerful battery that works non-stop. It's connected to both the electrical power network and the web servers consistently, so in case the power stops, the UPS is already functioning, which helps prevent the servers from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is certainly an engine which can supply the necessary energy to keep the servers up and running for a longer period of time. In case there is an outage, the UPS provides the required time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the primary power supply is restored.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Shared Hosting

If you host your sites within a shared hosting account with our company, you'll be able to forget about complications caused by electrical power failures, since, in contrast to various other providers, we don't keep numerous web servers attached to one UPS. Rather, every web server that is part of our avant-garde cloud platform has its own UPS unit which can easily keep it operational for hours. Also, our data centers in the U.S., in the United Kingdom and in Australia have many different generators that boot up for minutes and that can easily power all the hosting servers for an extensive period of time. That way, the performance of your sites or their loading speed will not be affected, so you'll be able to enjoy an uninterrupted high-quality hosting service at all times.

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

The semi-dedicated server accounts we provide you with are created inside a state-of-the-art data center in downtown Chicago and its electrical power backup system is amongst the reasons why we are able to afford to guarantee a 99.9% uptime for both the machines which are part of our highly developed hosting platform and the network that addresses all the traffic to and from them. An individual UPS device is attached to each and every machine to keep it online until a number of generators kick in. The latter are potent enough to supply electric power for the entire center for a long time with no need to reduce the power consumption or the productivity of any web server or network device, so even in the event that there is an outage, all the websites hosted on our platform will still be available without any disruptions and will operate at top speed.
