UPS is an abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source. That's a battery that is used to power some type of computer or a web server to prevent the loss of data in case the main power source fails for whatever reason or becomes risky. A diesel generator basically self-explanatory. UPSs and generators are widely-used as a backup in data centers to back up the main power source and to ensure the constant operation of all of the web servers located there. Due to the fact that the UPS works all the time, it offers the necessary power for the servers to remain working until the generator starts and takes over. Using such a backup is a must for any data center or web hosting provider that wants to keep their hardware and data intact in case of a power surge or outage, due to the fact that it provides them with ample time to react until the issue is resolved and the primary power supply is restored.

UPS & Diesel Back-up Generator in Shared Hosting

The 99.9% network and server uptime warranty which we offer you is, in part, a result of the electrical power backup setup we have in each of the three data centers in which we offer shared hosting packages - in Chicago (USA), in Coventry (UK), and in Sydney (Australia). If you purchase a new account to create or move your sites, it will be created on a modern cloud platform that consists of a number of clusters taking care of your content. Every single web server within the given cluster provides its own powerful enterprise-class UPS to keep it up and running no matter what, until a lot of electrical power generators boot up and supply the necessary power for the whole center to remain operating for several hours. You will not notice anything even in case there's an interruption, as our backup units can easily power all of the devices and we won't have to restrict the amount of working web servers or the network equipment which handles the traffic to your Internet sites.

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

The semi-dedicated server accounts we offer you are created within a state-of-the-art data center in the downtown area of Chicago and its electric power backup system is amongst the reasons why we can afford to guarantee a 99.9% uptime for both the servers which are part of our advanced website hosting platform and the network which addresses all the traffic to and from them. An individual UPS unit is connected to each and every machine to keep it online until a variety of generators kick in. The latter are potent enough to supply electric power for the whole facility for several hours with no need to restrict the power consumption or the overall performance of any web server or network device, so even in the event that there is a disruption, all the websites hosted on our platform will still be accessible with no disruptions and will perform at top speed.
