Description

Interface monitoring method and device, computing equipment and medium

Technical Field

The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to an interface monitoring method, an interface monitoring apparatus, a computing device, and a computer-readable storage medium.

Background

This section is intended to provide a background or context to the embodiments of the invention that are recited in the claims. The description herein is not admitted to be prior art by inclusion in this section.

The client can simply and conveniently perform data information interaction with the server through an Application Programming Interface (API), and access Application services, computing services and the like provided by the server. Taking music software as an example, the functions of the music software can be realized by calling a Web API (Web application program interface) provided by a cloud server and combining with local control logic. When problems occur in these APIs, failures and abnormalities may occur in the client, so monitoring performance such as stability and effectiveness of the APIs is very important.

However, in the existing API monitoring scheme, monitoring configuration information such as APIs to be monitored, monitored fields, and exception judgment logic of each API needs to be clarified before monitoring, and then the monitoring configuration information is issued to a server or a client to implement monitoring. When a new API comes online, monitoring configuration information of the new API needs to be manually added, which affects monitoring efficiency, and particularly, when the number of APIs is large, it is difficult for a person to follow up each API detail change, and situations such as missing configuration or configuration error are likely to occur, which leads to a decrease in accuracy of API monitoring.

The principles and spirit of the present disclosure are explained in detail below with reference to several representative embodiments of the present disclosure.

Summary of The Invention

In the existing interface stability monitoring scheme, for example, for a Web API, two modes of server monitoring and client monitoring are mainly included.

For the server monitoring mode, the monitoring logic code can be configured at the server. When a Web API call request of a client is received, before the Web API call request is returned to the client to call data, whether the Web API call request has various conditions of data request ineligibility, insufficient authority of a requester, overtime service operation and the like or not is detected, whether the call request is normal or not is judged, and a detection result is recorded into a log.

For the client monitoring mode, the logic code for monitoring can be configured at the client. When a client side initiates a Web API call request, whether the Web API service is abnormal or not is judged according to the result of the call request. For example, it may be determined whether a corresponding HTTP Status Code (HTTP Status Code) is normal, and if the HTTP Status Code is 40X or 50X, it indicates that the Web API returns an exception; if the HTTP status code is normal, a specified field may be further detected according to an agreement, for example, the specified field represents information of "request exception this time", which indicates that the Web API call request is abnormal. When the abnormity is detected, the client can record the abnormity and report the abnormity to the corresponding log service in batch immediately or periodically.

The inventors have found that the above monitoring scheme requires the following work to be done before monitoring becomes effective:

(1) defining a list of application program interfaces to be monitored, and issuing the list to a server or a client;

(2) the method comprises the steps of determining the specific field configuration of an application program interface to be monitored, and issuing the specific field configuration to a server side or a client side;

(3) and determining the abnormal judgment logic of each application program interface, and issuing or hard-coding the judgment logic to a server or a client.

Therefore, the existing interface monitoring scheme needs to collect the application program interface to be monitored and the field to be monitored in advance, and needs a specialist to maintain for a long time, and for the Web API which has a large number of application program interfaces and needs to be cooperatively maintained by multiple teams, the existing interface monitoring scheme is difficult to follow the detail change of the application program interface every time, and the situations of missing configuration or configuration errors are easy to occur. Moreover, when a new application program interface is online, monitoring configuration needs to be performed according to the new application program interface and configured monitoring items need to be issued, the monitoring configuration of the application program interface is implemented manually, the configuration efficiency is low, and errors are prone to occur.

Based on the above, the basic idea of the present disclosure is: providing an interface monitoring method, an interface monitoring device, computing equipment and a medium, and acquiring monitoring data of a target application program interface requested to be called; extracting characteristic information of the monitoring data; responding to the situation that the verification information matched with the characteristic information is not found in the current monitoring configuration information base, and generating new verification information from the characteristic information according to a verification information generation rule; and adding the newly added verification information into the monitoring configuration information base. On one hand, the method can automatically identify the characteristic change of the application program interface and generate new verification information based on the characteristic change, thereby avoiding the problems that omission is easy to occur when the application program interface is manually followed up, and errors are easy to occur when the verification information is manually configured, and improving the monitoring accuracy of the application program interface; on the other hand, when a new application program interface is online, new verification information can be automatically generated and added into the monitoring configuration information base, and compared with a method that verification information must be manually configured and added, the monitoring efficiency of the application program interface is obviously improved; moreover, the characteristic change of the same application program interface at different time can be automatically detected, and stable verification information can be generalized for the application program interface based on the characteristic change.

Having described the general principles of the present disclosure, various non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below.

Application scene overview

It should be noted that the following application scenarios are merely illustrated to facilitate an understanding of the spirit and principles of the present disclosure, and embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect. Rather, embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to any scenario where applicable.

For example, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure may be applied to a scenario for monitoring performance such as stability and validity of an application program interface. For example, in a Web application architecture, taking a call Web API as an example, referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of an application scenario of the interface monitoring method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown, where the application scenario may include at least one client 11 and a server 12, and the client 11 and the server 12 communicate with each other through a network 13. Various applications, such as music applications, video applications, etc., may be run on the client 11. Taking the music application program running on the client 11 as an example, when running, it will call the Web API provided by the server 12, and implement the function of the music application program by combining with its own logic code. According to the interface monitoring scheme provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, when a music application program running on a client 11 requests to call a Web API provided by a server 12, monitoring data of the Web API requested to be called is acquired, then feature information of the monitoring data is extracted, in response to that verification information matching the feature information is not found in a current monitoring configuration information base, new verification information is generated from the feature information according to a verification information generation rule, and then the new verification information is added to the monitoring configuration information base.

It should be noted that the client 11 may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a desktop computer, a portable notebook computer, or a vehicle-mounted terminal. The server 12 may be a physical server including an independent host, or a virtual server carried by a host cluster, or a cloud server. The Network 13 may be a wired Network or a wireless Network, for example, the Network 13 may be a PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) or the internet.

Illustratively, based on the application scenario shown in fig. 1, referring to fig. 2, a system deployment diagram of the application scenario according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown, wherein a monitoring rule system 231 and a monitoring configuration information base 232 may be deployed on a dedicated server 23, the monitoring rule system 231 may be provided for an administrator to perform a monitoring management operation, and meanwhile, a monitoring system 211 may be deployed on a client 21, and the monitoring system 211 may implement collection of monitoring data and extraction of feature information. When a music application program running on the client 21 requests to call a Web API provided by the server 22, the client 21 acquires corresponding monitoring data through the monitoring system 211 and extracts feature information of the monitoring data, and then reports the feature information to the monitoring rule system 231, and when the monitoring rule system 231 determines that verification information matching the feature information is not found in the current monitoring configuration information base, the monitoring rule system 231 generates new verification information from the feature information according to a verification information generation rule, and then adds the new verification information to the monitoring configuration information base 232. In practical applications, the server 23 may also be a server of the server 22, and the monitoring rule system 231 and the monitoring configuration information base 232 may be directly deployed on the server 22.

Illustratively, based on the application scenario shown in fig. 1, referring to fig. 3, another system deployment diagram of the application scenario according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown, wherein the monitoring configuration information base 322 and the monitoring system 323 may be deployed on the server 32, and the monitoring rule system 331 may be deployed on the administrator server 33. In practical applications, the monitoring rule system 331 may also be directly deployed on the server 32. The monitoring system 323 can collect monitoring data and extract and process characteristic information, and the monitoring rule system 331 can be used for an administrator to perform monitoring management operations. When a music application program running on the client 31 requests to call a Web API provided by the server 32, the server 32 may collect corresponding monitoring data and extract feature information of the monitoring data through the monitoring system 323, and when it is determined that verification information matching the feature information is not found in the current monitoring configuration information base, report the exception and the feature information to the monitoring rule system 331, the monitoring rule system 331 may automatically generate new verification information from the feature information and issue the new verification information to the monitoring system 323, and the monitoring system 323 adds the new verification information to the monitoring configuration information base 322. The monitoring rule system 331 may also send an alarm to the administrator according to the reported abnormality, and the alarm is processed by the administrator, for example, whether the alarm is abnormal or new service logic, whether the feature information is generated as new verification information, whether the feature information is modified, and the like are confirmed.

Exemplary method

In the following, in conjunction with the above application scenario, an interface monitoring method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure is described with reference to fig. 4. The interface monitoring method may include steps S410 to S440. The execution main body of the interface monitoring method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure may be a device with a computing processing function, such as a mobile phone, a computer, a server, and the like.

Referring to fig. 4, in step S410, monitoring data of a target application program interface requested to be called is collected.

In an example embodiment, the monitoring data may be call request data sent to the server when the client requests the call server to provide the target application program interface, or may be data returned to the client by the target application program interface of the server for the call request.

In step S420, feature information of the monitoring data is extracted.

The characteristic information of the monitoring data can describe the characteristics of the data from multiple dimensions, for example, the characteristics of the monitoring data can be described from at least one dimension, such as a protocol format, whether the protocol format is legal or not, whether a field concerned exists or not, whether the field is legal or not, whether the format adopted by the field is legal or not, and the like. The protocol format may include, for example, an HTTP protocol, a WebSocket protocol, or a Tunnel protocol. Taking the HTTP protocol as an example, it can be considered whether the monitoring data is legal in the HTTP protocol format, whether the request header objects are legal, what format the requester body adopts, what the request verb is, and the like.

It should be noted that the examined dimensions and contents listed herein are only for illustration and are not used to limit the disclosure, and any examined dimensions can be used in practical applications.

In an example embodiment of the present disclosure, the monitoring data may be JSON formatted data. Correspondingly, the JSON-Schema can be used for describing the monitoring data to obtain the characteristic information of the monitoring data.

For example, taking a data packet in JSON format returned when a Web API is called as an example, the data packet may be described as follows:

this is a Track object returned by the called Web API, which may look at one or more of the following characteristics of the packet, for example: what the trackId means, whether the trackName field is required, whether the artistAge field can be 0, whether tags must be an array, whether all values in an array must be strings, etc.

According to the bases of the investigation, the data packet can be described by using a JSON-Schema, so as to obtain a standard JSON-Schema object, and the JSON-Schema object may include the following contents:

illustratively, the JSON-Schema object may characterize the following features of the above-mentioned Track object returned by the Web API:

(ii) the trackId must be of integer type;

② the trackName must be string type;

③ two fields of trackId and trackName are needed in the data;

the tags field must be an array, the element type in the array must be string type, and each element in the array must be unique.

The data characteristic item (c) is the characteristic information of the extracted monitoring data.

It should be noted that the content and the number of the data feature items are only used for illustration and are not used for limiting the disclosure, and it is understood that the extracted feature information of the monitoring data may be a single data feature item or a feature combination of a plurality of data feature items.

In step S430, in response to that the verification information matching the feature information is not found in the current monitoring configuration information base, the feature information is generated into new verification information according to the verification information generation rule.

In an example embodiment, in response to that the verification information matching the feature information is not found in the current monitoring configuration information base, new feature prompt information may be further output to prompt an administrator that a new interface data feature appears.

The monitoring configuration information base can store the corresponding relation between the application program interface and the verification information, and different application program interfaces correspond to different verification information. The verification information may include contents that the application program interface needs to verify. Illustratively, the check information may include at least one of a field identifier, a field data type, a field format, and a field characteristic value of the field to be included. Illustratively, the check information may include, for example, a combination of one or more of the above-mentioned data feature items (c) and (c).

For example, assuming that N (N is a positive integer) application program interfaces exist in the monitoring configuration information base, and Xi represents the number of check items in the check information of the ith application program interface, the number SUM of the check items stored in the monitoring configuration information base is

The monitoring configuration information base can be deployed at the client, and the client checks the extracted characteristic information of the monitoring data according to the checking information in the monitoring configuration information base. The monitoring configuration information base can also be deployed at a server side, and the server side verifies the extracted characteristic information of the monitoring data according to the verification information in the monitoring configuration information base. The monitoring principle is the same whether the monitoring is carried out by a server or a client, namely, the characteristic information of the monitoring data is confirmed item by item according to the check item in the existing check information in the monitoring configuration information base for the application program interface requested to be called, whether the monitoring data has abnormal conditions such as data error, service abnormity, data redundancy, data loss and the like can be judged through checking, and the process has no invasion to the service code.

For example, referring to fig. 5, a schematic diagram of checking characteristic information of monitoring data according to a monitoring configuration information base according to some exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure is schematically shown, and it is assumed that application program interfaces A, B and C and corresponding checking information thereof are stored in the monitoring configuration information base 53, and the corresponding relationships are corresponding relationship 531, corresponding relationship 532 and corresponding relationship 533, respectively. When the client 51 calls the application program interface a to the server 52, the verification information in the correspondence 531 may be used to verify the characteristic information of the monitoring data of the application program interface a; correspondingly, for the application program interface B, the verification information in the corresponding relation 532 may be used for verification, and for the application program interface C, the verification information in the corresponding relation 533 may be used for verification.

In an example embodiment of the present disclosure, the feature information of the monitoring data may be a feature combination of a plurality of data feature items, after the feature information of the monitoring data is extracted, a verification feature combination consistent with the feature combination may be searched in the current monitoring configuration information base, and if the verification feature combination is not found, it indicates that a new data feature occurs in the monitoring data, and the new data feature may occur because a target application program interface requested to be called is a new application program interface, or may also occur because an application program interface already existing in the system has a new data feature, and the feature information may be further generated into new verification information according to a verification information generation rule. The generated new verification information may include at least one of the following: the field identification, field data type, field format and field characteristic value of the field are required to be contained.

In an embodiment, the generated new verification information may further include verification sequence information, where the verification sequence information may indicate a verification sequence of each verification item when the new verification information is used as the verification information in the monitoring configuration information base. For example, the newly added check information includes a field data type and a field format, and the check sequence information indicates that the check sequence is "field format — field data type", so that when the newly added check information is used as the check information in the monitoring configuration information base, the field format is checked first, and then the field data type is checked.

In an example embodiment of the present disclosure, the feature information of the monitoring data may also be a single data feature item, after the feature information of the monitoring data is extracted, it may be determined whether a verification feature identical to the single data feature item exists in the current monitoring configuration information base, and if the verification feature does not exist, it indicates that the single data feature item is a newly appeared feature, and the new feature may appear because the target application program interface requested to be called is a new application program interface, or may also because a new data feature appears in an application program interface already existing in the system, new verification information may be further generated from the feature information of the monitoring data according to a verification information generation rule.

Illustratively, in response to that the verification information matched with the extracted feature information is not found in the current monitoring configuration information base, the feature information may be recorded for later use, the feature information may be automatically changed into newly added verification information according to a set processing strategy, or the feature information may be marked as information to be processed, the feature information is confirmed item by a manager, and the manager determines whether to generate the newly added verification information.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the target application program interface requested to be called may be a newly added application program interface, or may be a known application program interface in the system.

In an example embodiment, in response to the target application program interface called by the request being the new application program interface, the feature information of the monitoring data may be directly used as the new verification information. For example, the extracted feature information of the monitoring data is the data feature items (i) and (iv) in the step S420, and the data feature items are combined to describe a new data feature, and if the new data feature is considered to be caused by the new application program interface, the data feature items can be combined to directly serve as the new verification information.

For example, the feature information of the monitoring data may include at least one data feature item, and a verification order may also be set for the at least one data feature item to obtain verification order information, and then the at least one data feature item and the obtained verification order information are associated and combined to obtain new verification information.

In an exemplary embodiment, referring to fig. 6, in response to that the target application program interface is an existing application program interface, generating new verification information according to the verification information generation rule and the feature information of the monitoring data may include steps S610 to S640 as follows:

in step S610, a change mode in which the feature information is changed with respect to the target verification information is obtained, where the target verification information is verification information corresponding to a target application program interface in the current monitoring configuration information base.

The monitoring configuration information base may store verification information corresponding to each of known application program interfaces, for example, as shown in fig. 5, a corresponding relationship between an application program interface a and the verification information thereof is a corresponding relationship 531, and when a target application program interface requested to be called is the application program interface a, the verification information in the corresponding relationship 531 is target verification information.

For example, in response to that no verification information matching the extracted feature information is found in the current monitoring configuration information base, the feature information is compared with the target verification information, and a change manner of the feature information is determined, where the change manner may include at least one of the following: field data type changes, field format changes, field feature value changes, and the like.

The field data type change may be, for example, a change from one of enumerated type enum, integer type integer, floating point type float, boolean type borolean, string type string, object type object, array type array, and the like to another. The field characteristic value change may be, for example: the integer type is also the integer type, the limitation of the maximum value and the minimum value originally exists, and characteristic values smaller than the minimum value or larger than the maximum value appear; the element type is also array type, the element type is originally limited to be integer, but string type elements appear; the enum type has a situation of breaking through the original enumerated value, and the like.

For example, in different usage scenarios, multiple data structures may appear in the same application program interface, resulting in a generalization of multiple JSON schemas, which may be referred to as multimodal in the embodiments of the present disclosure. For example, after acquiring a Track object returned by the same Web API and performing JSON-Schema description on the Track object, the following result 1 and result 2 may appear in a tag field in the Track object:

results 1: { "tags" [ "Past Present and Future", "Janet Jackson" ] };

results 2: { "tags": "Past Present and Future" }.

As shown in the results 1 and 2, the tags field of the Track object may be string type, or may be an array in which all elements are string type, that is, a change in field data type occurs.

In practical application, when the feature information is changed, it means that an application program interface service is abnormal or a normal business logic is newly added to the application program interface service. These changes can be handled according to a set policy. For example, some new data features may be directly added to the monitoring configuration information base as new verification information, for example, data in which a field is originally string but the field value is integer occurs, and this change is considered as new service logic that occurs, and may be directly added to the monitoring configuration information base as new verification information. For another example, some new data features are considered as abnormal features, and an alarm is required, for example, a certain field is originally of an integer type, the feature value is limited to be 1-100, but feature data with a value of 101 appears, and when the change is considered as an abnormal condition, an alarm prompt needs to be given.

For example, in one embodiment, the feature information that is changed may be processed in steps S620 to S640 based on the obtained change mode. In another embodiment, the administrator may also be notified when the feature information of the monitoring data is detected to be new feature information, and the administrator determines whether to generate the feature information as the new verification information, and an exemplary implementation method of the method may be as shown in fig. 8.

In step S620, in response to the change pattern matching the setting condition allowed as the new verification configuration, the target feature item in the feature information is acquired.

The target characteristic item may include at least one of a target field identification, a target field data type, a target field format, and a target field characteristic value. For example, one, more or all of the data feature items may be selected from the data feature items in the feature information as the target feature items.

In an exemplary embodiment, for example, if the difference represented by the change mode is negligible, for example, such difference does not affect the secure and legal invocation of the target application program interface, the change mode may be considered to be in accordance with the setting condition allowed as the new verification configuration; correspondingly, if the difference represented by the change mode is not negligible, for example, the difference may affect the security and legal call of the target application program interface, or may represent a new service logic of the target application program interface, the change mode may be considered not to be compliant with the setting condition allowed as the new verification configuration, and step S640 may be executed.

It should be noted that the method for determining whether the modification manner is allowed to be used as the setting condition of the new verification configuration in the present exemplary embodiment is only an example, and is not intended to limit the present disclosure, and in practical applications, adaptive setting may be performed as needed without departing from the basic idea of the present disclosure.

In step S630, the target feature items are combined in an associated manner to obtain new verification information.

For example, the obtained target features include a target field identifier, a target field data type, and a target field format, and these three feature items may be associated and combined into a whole to obtain the newly added verification information. For example, an identity may also be added to the new verification information.

In an exemplary embodiment, a check sequence may also be set for the obtained target feature item to obtain check sequence information, and then the target feature item and the check sequence information are associated and combined to obtain new check information.

In step S640, in response to the change pattern not conforming to the setting condition permitted as the new verification configuration, an abnormality warning message is output.

When the change mode does not meet the set condition allowed to be used as new verification configuration, if the new characteristic information of the monitoring data needs to be processed, the characteristic information can be recorded, and abnormal alarm prompt information is sent to an administrator, for example, the output prompt information "new data interface characteristic appears", and an alarm prompt tone can also be output at the same time. After receiving the abnormal alarm prompt message, the administrator needs to manually confirm whether the new characteristic information is caused by the service abnormality of the target application program interface or because new business logic appears. If it is determined that a new service logic is present, the feature information may be optionally generated as new verification information, and after the determination, step S440 is performed.

For example, fig. 7 schematically illustrates a schematic diagram of generating new verification information from feature information of monitoring data according to a verification information generation rule when multiple modes occur in the same application program interface according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, and as shown in fig. 7, the monitoring configuration information base 73 includes verification information F1 and F2, after extracting the feature information of the monitoring data, matches and compares the feature information with the verification information F1 and F2, and if the feature information is different from the verification information F1 and F2, it is considered that a new data interface feature occurs, and may record the feature information. Then, acquiring a change mode of the feature information relative to changes of F1 and F2 respectively, and according to a judgment method and a corresponding processing strategy of whether the change mode meets the set conditions allowed to be used as new verification configuration, if the new data interface features are considered to be acceptable, giving no alarm; if such a new data interface feature is deemed to need to be processed, an alert may be issued to the administrator that the new data interface feature is present. The manager needs to confirm whether an exception occurs or a new business logic occurs. If the service logic is considered to be new, the administrator may choose to generate new verification information from the feature information and add the new verification information to the monitoring configuration information base 73. If the data interface characteristics are monitored next time, no alarm is sent out.

With the repeated appearance of multiple modes, more and more verification information is accumulated in the monitoring configuration information base 73, and monitoring assets with certain scale and business significance can be formed. For the same application program interface, diversified data structures can be automatically generalized into consistent application program interface description, automatic convergence is carried out to stable application program interface monitoring configuration, and monitoring efficiency and accuracy of the application program interface are improved.

In an exemplary embodiment of the disclosure, fig. 8 schematically illustrates a flow of a method for generating new verification information from feature information according to a verification information generation rule, where the method may be implemented by a manager to determine whether to generate new verification information from extracted feature information. Referring to fig. 8, the method may include steps S810 to S820 as follows:

in step S810, a new feature processing interface is displayed, where the new feature processing interface includes a confirmation control for confirming that the feature information is generated as new verification information.

In step S820, in response to the confirmation operation facing the confirmation control, the feature information is used as the new verification information.

Illustratively, in response to the confirmation operation facing the confirmation control, a target characteristic item is obtained from the characteristic information, and the target characteristic item may include at least one of a target field identification, a target field data type, a target field format and a target field characteristic value. For example, the data feature items included in the feature information may be displayed to the manager, and the manager may select one, a plurality of, or all of the data feature items as the target feature items. For another example, whether the feature information is generated as the prompt information of the newly added verification information or not may be displayed in the newly added feature processing interface, a corresponding confirmation button is set, and after triggering the confirmation button, the manager automatically obtains the target feature item from the feature information according to a preset rule, where the preset rule may include at least one of the number of the selected data feature items, the data feature item to be selected, the selection priority of the data feature item, and the like.

And after the target characteristic item is obtained, performing association combination on the target characteristic item to obtain newly added check information. In one embodiment, the target feature items may be aggregated into a feature item set, so as to obtain new verification information. In another embodiment, a check sequence may be further set for the data feature item in the target feature item to obtain check sequence information, and the check sequence information and the target feature item may be combined in an associated manner to obtain new check information.

In an example embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the method in the embodiment corresponding to fig. 8, the newly added feature processing interface may further include a modification control for modifying the feature information, and if the feature information needs to be modified, an administrator may execute a modification operation through the modification control. Specifically, the method may include: and responding to the modification operation facing the modification control, modifying the data feature item in the feature information to obtain modified feature information, and taking the modified feature information as newly added verification information.

For example, the data feature items included in the feature information may be displayed to a manager, and if a certain data feature item needs to be modified, for example, a field type is changed or a field feature value is changed, the data feature item may be selected and modified by using a modification control.

In step S440, the new verification information is added to the monitoring configuration information base.

After the newly added check information is generated, the newly added check information is added to the monitoring configuration information base, the feature information of the monitoring data can be additionally checked by using the newly added check information on the basis of the original check information for the subsequent monitoring data of the same application program interface, and when the abnormality is checked, the steps of the interface monitoring method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can be repeatedly executed, for example, the feature information can be recorded and alarm information can be sent out, and an administrator can judge whether protective measures need to be taken, the abnormality is ignored or the feature information is generated into the newly added check information according to the alarm information.

For example, in an embodiment, adding the new verification information to the monitoring configuration information base may include: establishing a corresponding relation between a target application program interface and newly added check information; and adding the created corresponding relation to a monitoring configuration information base. It can be understood that, if the target application program interface is an existing application program interface, the newly added verification information may be directly added to the verification information set corresponding to the target application program interface in the monitoring configuration information base. Of course, the monitoring configuration information base may also store only the verification information without distinguishing which application program interface belongs to, and correspondingly, the newly added verification information may be directly added to the monitoring configuration information base.

For example, in another embodiment, the administrator may also determine whether to add new verification information to the monitoring configuration information base. Specifically, adding the newly added verification information to the monitoring configuration information base may include: displaying a monitoring configuration information management interface, wherein the monitoring configuration information management interface comprises an adding control for adding new verification information; and responding to the adding operation facing the adding control, and adding the newly added verification information into the monitoring configuration information base.

In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, differences of application program interfaces with different data characteristics may be distinguished according to actual requirements of a service calling a target application program interface, and if the differences are negligible, the same application program interface may be considered, and if the differences are not negligible, a new application program interface may be considered to be generated. Accordingly, it is possible to determine whether the target application program interface requested to be called is the newly added application program interface in this manner.

For example, taking the HTTP protocol as an example, for two requests occurring in two time periods in the actual service, namely two application program interfaces that request calls:

request 1: GET http:// xxx. server. com/api/todo/listoffset 0& limit 10;

request 2: GET http:// xxx. server. com/api/todo/listoffset 10& limit 10.

In request 1 and request 2, the character "? "the appended characters are considered as request parameters, and both requests attempt to obtain information of an entity such as todo (backlog) from the server, and finally return a list of todo. The profile information of the first invocation request (request 1) may be summarized to the monitoring configuration information base.

For request 1, it tries to obtain the 1 st to 10 th data corresponding to the target application program interface, and for request 2, it tries to obtain the 11 th to 20 th data corresponding to the target application program interface. If the difference between them can be considered negligible in real business, then request 2 can be considered to correspond to request 1 and the same application program interface.

Suppose there is a request 3 of "POST http:// xxx. server. com/api/todo/add", the content of the requesting body of the request being "{ title:" work "}". Comparing request 3 with request 1, the following differences exist:

(1) the request verbs differ: request 1 is GET, request 3 is POST;

(2) the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) path of an HTTP request differs: request 1 is "/api/todo/list" and request 3 is "/api/todo/add".

Thus, request 1 and request 3 represent completely different meanings, i.e., request 1 attempts to obtain data for the server and request 3 attempts to modify data for the server. In real-life traffic where the difference is significant and not negligible, request 3 would be considered as the presence of a new application program interface that needs to be archived in the monitoring configuration information base.
