A company has a data center with several critical servers that must maintain high availability. During a routine risk assessment, you are tasked with ensuring that power disruptions do not impact server uptime. Which of the following solutions should be implemented to guarantee that the servers remain operational in the event of a power outage?
An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) provides temporary power when the input power source fails. It allows the servers to keep running for a short period, enabling an orderly shutdown if necessary or continuing operation until the main power is restored or a backup generator can take over. Surge protectors, SPS systems, and line conditioners do not provide backup power; they only protect against power surges or improve the quality of power delivery.
