UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems that are kept by website hosting companies within their data centers in case there are interruptions in the main power supply or the current is unsound and unable to sustain the proper operation of the web servers located inside the facility. UPS stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it is a highly effective battery that works non-stop. It's connected to both the electric power network and the servers all of the time, so when the power stops, the UPS is already working, which helps prevent the machines from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is definitely an engine which can give you the required energy to keep the servers working for a longer period of time. In the case of an outage, the UPS gives the necessary time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the primary source is restored.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Shared Website Hosting

If you host your Internet sites within a shared website hosting account with us, you can forget about complications caused by electrical power blackouts, because, in contrast to many other providers, we do not keep many servers attached to just one UPS. Instead, each and every machine which is part of our avant-garde cloud platform features its own UPS device that can easily keep it working for hours on end. Furthermore, our data centers in the USA, in the UK and in Australia have multiple generators which boot up for minutes and that will be able to power all the hosting servers for an extensive period of time. This way, the performance of your sites or their loading speed won't be affected, so you are able to enjoy an uninterrupted high-quality hosting service at all times.

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

The semi-dedicated server accounts that we provide you with are created in 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 guarantee a 99.9% uptime for both the servers which are part of our innovative website hosting platform and the network that deals with all the traffic to and from them. An individual UPS unit is connected to every web server to keep it online until numerous generators kick in. The latter are potent enough to provide electric power for the entire data center for a long time without having to limit the power consumption or the overall performance of any hosting server or network device, so even when there is a disruption, all of the websites hosted on our platform will still be available without any disruptions and will function at top speed.
