How much battery run-time do I need?
This can vary greatly depending on the critical load. Do you need just enough time to save files and shut down the computer, or is this a 24/7 site where no downtime is acceptable? For a typical PC or workstation, you need at least 5-10 minutes of battery backup to complete any work in process and gracefully shut down your system during extended power failure. For more mission-critical systems, extended run-time batteries or emergency generators are required.
