yes, i am using microtech 850 UPS with Exide 1500 AH Battery
Inverter is the one which converts DC to AC. UPS is the one which provides you uninterrupted power supply. UPS as a system comprises of converter (converts AC to DC), battery, battery charger circuit and an inverter (converts DC to AC). Inverter is part of UPS.
In UPS ,the main power comes to the UPS and is used to charge a battery inside. The output from the battery is fed into a sine wave inverter which converts DC into AC and feeds to the computer in case of a power failure. In such a scenario, the battery is stopped from charging and instantly starts to supply power to the computer. In Inverter ,AC is converted into DC and then is used to charge the battery. When the power supply goes off, the relay triggers the switch from mains to inverter. It is the use of a sensor and a relay that is the main difference between a UPS and an inverter, otherwise the two are same. And the use of relay and sensor cause the time delay in power supply from an inverter.
An inverter simply takes a DC voltage, usually from a battery, and converts it to AC for use by standard appliances. A UPS does the same thing, but has added circuitry to charge the battery when AC utility power is available, and to automatically switch the inverter on when utility power fails.

Ups can be connected to an inverter since it does not exceed the rated voltage
Yes you can use a UPS provided it can supply enough power for the server and you have good battery backup. A inverter is an option but a little bit more complicated, you will need a good battery charger and you have to run the server on the inverter alone, so the inverter will work 24/24 because you can not use mains supply to the server, so it have to be a good quality inverter, preferably a sine wave inverter with a 100% duty cycle, good batteries and a good charger that will supply enough charge to maintain the current draw of the inverter and have reserve to store energy in the batteries for times when the mains is out and the charger can not supply the energy demand.

A UPS is generally used to refer to a Uninterruptable Power Supply which is almost never found within a computer case. A UPS consists of a battery, an inverter and switchover circuitry, so that when the mains fails, the battery will take over with the inverter supplying the high voltage. These are normally external units, wired into the supply to the desk top computer. A laptop with a healthy battery, will run on it's own battery anyway if the charger power fails.
Online UPS on the other hand uses an Inverter which always on to give sine wave AC in the output socket. The incoming AC is first converted into DC by a transformer to charge the battery as well as to give power to the inverter transformer. The inverter transformer converts the DC to AC continuously to power the load. If power fails, the battery backup circuit switches on and takes the load. Online UPS is more efficient than the Offline UPS and uses a "Constant duty Inverter". It also has a "Static bypass" system that transfers the load to the AC power if the inverter system fails. The advantage of the Online UPS is that, it clean up the AC waveform by converting it into DC then reconverting this DC to fresh AC.

Uninterrupted power supply (UPS) is a stand by battery. Charged with mains power, it is designed to give out DC current should the mains power suddenly goes off, long enough for computers to be shut down properly, so avoiding corruption of data and the computer system. I believe that in some larger commercial/military/Government organisations, an inverter DC to AC is in their larger capacity UPS systems, to continue on AC until the mains power is restored.Another AnswerA UPS is often used to supply computers, in order to protect their data in the event of a power failure. They consist, essentially, of a battery charger, a rechargeable battery, and an inverter. The main power supply maintains the charge on a battery, via a battery charger, and the battery's output is converted to an a.c. output via an inverter. Voltage values are maintained by internal transformers.
