There's an engine-driven compressor. On a turbine engine they pull bleed air off one of the turbine sections; on a piston engine plane it's an accessory to the engine. (Having said that, very few piston planes have pressurized cabins--they don't go high enough to need them.)

What is the air pressure in an aircraft?
While the pressure outside the aircraft is very low, cabin pressurization allows pilots to pressurize the aircraft cabin to about 11.5 psi. They try to keep the cabin pressurized to make it seem like the air at around 7,000 feet. That's why your ears pop.
In Microsoft Flight Simulator X how do you pressurize an aircraft-737?
In the default 737 747 the cabin pressures are determined by the config file. In some of the add on 3rd party packages which are paid for the is more functionality

Can an argon or CO2 mix be used to pressurize a keg?
Yes, it can.
How do you pressurize fuel system?
Cycle the ignition on and off several times holding it in the on position for a few seconds each time. Doing this 4-5 times will allow the fuel pump to pressurize the fuel system.
Why are airplane doors and windows completely sealed?
Modern jet airplanes fly at high altitudes, where there is less air and therefore less oxygen. Aircraft cabins are pressurized so that pilots and passengers can have enough oxygen to breathe. There is a high air pressure inside the cabin because outside air (and oxygen) is forced into the cabin by the engines in order to pressurize the inside of the airplane, and this gives people enough oxygen to breathe. This is only possible because the airplane is sealed; if the windows and doors were open, the engines wouldn't be able to pressurize the cabin.
