Do you have access to a gas-powered generator? A UPS could keep you up long enough to cut over.
I'm against fossil fuel solutions, a UPS is good if you have daily shorter outages. A quality server-grade UPS is pricey, but can last you much longer.
The best solution, and this is an investment, but would be solar. Tbh if you have power outages that often and you own your place, then I would be seriously looking into solar+wall battery. It would fail over automatically.
We know nothing about your location/usage OP so it's hard to make recommendations. But if it were me and my equipment in your scenario, I'd go full solar.
