UPSs and diesel generators are two backup systems that are kept by hosting providers in their data centers in case there are interruptions in the main power supply or the current is unstable and unable to sustain the correct functioning of the servers located inside the facility. UPS stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply or Uninterruptible Power Source and it's a powerful battery which works non-stop. It's connected to both the electrical power network and the servers consistently, so if the power stops, the UPS is already operational, which helps prevent the machines from going down even for a second. The diesel generator is an engine that can provide you with the needed power to keep the machines operational for a longer period of time. In case there is an outage, the UPS gives the necessary time for the diesel generator to start and then to take over until the main source is restored.
