back up sytems

Hello everyone ,
What are you using to back up your systems in case of power failures, tank overflows etc. Any info would be great . I have a 90 gal reef tank that I am considering different options as far as backing up the systems goes . I just want to see what other reefers are using. Thanks for your help
