Synchronous equalization system and method thereof

The present invention relates to a synchronization system and a method thereof, and more particularly to a synchronous equalization system and method for dispersing synchronization processing time points of clients and synchronization processing terminals according to the frequency and location of use of the client.

In recent years, with the popularity and flourishing of cloud technology, the number of users using cloud services has increased year by year. This situation has also led to the problem that the server responsible for synchronization processing in the cloud service is prone to overload.

Generally speaking, in the traditional synchronous processing technology, when the client is connected to the server, the data is synchronized immediately, or the user sets the time of the synchronization process. However, this method may cause all clients to request synchronous processing with the server at a similar time point, so that the servo end exceeds the processing load, resulting in poor synchronization processing efficiency and even causing the server to malfunction. Therefore, in the case of the conventional synchronous processing, there is a problem of poor load balance.

In view of this, some manufacturers have proposed a sequence of assigning clients to schedule processing according to the upper limit of the synchronous processing and the weight value of the client. In this way, it is ensured that the client with high weight value can prioritize the synchronization process and limit the number of clients that simultaneously perform synchronization processing to avoid the server being overloaded. However, the above method may cause the client with a lower weight value to be unable to perform synchronization processing smoothly, and at the same time, it is impossible to avoid a large number of clients concentrating on synchronous processing at a similar time point, so the above method still cannot effectively solve the load balance. Good question.

In summary, it can be known that there has been a problem of poor load balance of synchronous processing in the prior art for a long time, so it is necessary to propose an improved technical means to solve Decide on this issue.

In view of the problems of the prior art, the present invention discloses a synchronous equalization system and method thereof.

The client is configured to transmit a connection message; and the synchronization server includes a storage module, a detection module, a calculation module, an adjustment module, and a synchronization module. The storage module is configured to store the usage record and the synchronization time of each client. The detection module is configured to detect the location information and the usage time of the client after receiving the connection message, and generate a time zone according to the location information. Marking, and recording the time zone mark and the use time in the usage record of the corresponding client; the calculation module is configured to calculate the frequency of use of each client by using time according to the usage record of each client, and calculate the same time zone mark and The number of clients in the synchronization time; the adjustment module is used to adjust and set the actual synchronization time of each client according to the frequency of use and the number of clients; the synchronization module is configured to perform the synchronization server and the client according to the actual synchronization time. Synchronous processing.

As for the synchronous equalization method of the present invention, the steps include: storing a usage record of the client and a synchronization time; and after receiving the connection message from the client, detecting the location information and the usage time of the client, and according to the location The message generates a time zone tag, and records the time zone tag and the usage time in the usage record corresponding to the client; according to the usage record of each client, the usage frequency of each client is calculated by using the time, and the calculation has the same time zone tag. And the number of clients in the synchronization time; adjust and set the actual synchronization time of each client according to the frequency of use and the number of clients; according to the actual synchronization time, the synchronization server and the guest The client performs synchronization processing.

The system and method disclosed in the present invention are as above, and the difference from the prior art is that the present invention detects the location information of the client through the synchronous server to generate the time zone mark, and calculates the use frequency according to the use time of the client, and according to the use The frequency and the number of clients with the same time zone flag and synchronization time set the actual synchronization time of each client in order to disperse the synchronization processing time point of each client and the synchronization server.

Through the above technical means, the present invention can achieve the technical effect of improving the load balance of the synchronous processing.

The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments, so that the application of the technical means to solve the technical problems and achieve the technical effects can be fully understood and implemented.

Before describing the synchronous equalization system and the method thereof disclosed in the present invention, the nouns defined by the present invention are described. The usage record used in the present invention is used to record the location of the client detected by the synchronous server and its use. Time, so that the synchronization server can calculate the frequency of use of the client according to these records, and avoid a large number of client requests with the same location and synchronization time to synchronize with the synchronization server.

The following is a further description of the synchronous equalization system and the method thereof according to the drawings. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 1 is a system block diagram of a synchronous equalization system according to the present invention. The system includes: a client 110 and a synchronous servo. End 120. The client 110 is configured to transmit a connection message, where the connection message is a packet message that is sent to the synchronization server 120, and the client 110 and the synchronization server 120 transmit the message through the network 130. Connect messages and transfer and synchronize data. In actual implementation, the client 110 is a computer device having a network transmission function, such as a personal computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a mobile phone, and the like.

As for the synchronization server 120, the synchronization server 120 includes a storage module 121, a detection module 122, a calculation module 123, an adjustment module 124, and a synchronization module 125. The storage module 121 is configured to store the usage record and the synchronization time of each client 110. The synchronization time is a time for the user to set the synchronization process to be performed by the user. The synchronization time may be pre-stored in the storage module 121 by the user. in. In practical implementation, the storage module 121 can further store the priority level of each client 110 (for example, the priority level of the paying member is “high”, the priority level of the general member is “medium”, and the priority level of the visitor is “low”. "), and the priority level is provided to the adjustment module 124 to set the actual synchronization time of each client 110 according to the frequency of use, the number of clients, and the priority level.

The detecting module 122 is configured to detect the location information of the client 110 and the usage time (for example, the time when the client 110 logs in to the synchronization server 120) after receiving the connection message from the client 110. For the location where the client 110 is actually located, such as: Shanghai, Taipei, the United States, etc., it can be judged by detecting the IP address of the client 110, because of this judgment mode. It is a conventional technique, so it will not be repeated here. Then, the detecting module 122 generates a time zone mark according to the location information. For example, if the location message is “Taipei”, the time zone corresponding to “Taipei” may be queried according to a time zone correspondence table, for example, “GMT+8”. And the time zone "GMT+8" of the query is used as the time zone mark, and the time zone mark and the use time are recorded in the use record of the corresponding client 110 in the storage module 121. In particular, although the above is the usual offset of Greenwich (eg: "GMT+8") is used as the time zone, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In practice, any way that can be expressed as a time zone does not depart from the scope of application of the present invention.

The calculation module 123 is configured to calculate the frequency of use of each client 110 according to the usage record of each client 110, for example, assuming that the usage time in the usage record is “2012/10/25”. ;2012/10/26;2012/10/27", the calculation module 123 can calculate the number of uses (such as: value " according to a preset time interval (eg: "2012/10/25~2012/10/27") 3"); or assume that the usage time is the period during which the recording client 110 logs in to the synchronization server 120 to log out of the synchronization server 120 (eg, "2012/10/25 12:11:20; 2012/10/25 13:11:20"), the calculation module 123 can calculate the total number of hours accumulated in the time interval (for example, the value "1"), so that the calculation module 123 can be based on the number of uses or total The frequency of use of the client 110 is calculated by the level of the number of hours, and the number of times of use or the total number of hours is positively correlated with the frequency of use. Next, the computing module 123 will recalculate the number of clients with the same time zone tag and synchronization time. For example, if there are twelve clients 110, the time zone tags are all "GMT+8", and the synchronization time is For "2012/10/25 12:00:00", the number of clients calculated by the calculation module 123 will be the value "12".

The adjustment module 124 is configured to adjust and set the actual synchronization time of each client 110 according to the usage frequency and the number of clients calculated by the calculation module 123. In the above example, the number of clients is assumed to be the highest value. The adjustment module 124 re-adjusts and sets the synchronization time of each client 110 to the twelve clients 110 whose synchronization time is "2012/10/25 12:00:00" as the actual synchronization time, and the adjustment manner thereof. In order to adjust the priority of the synchronization process according to the frequency of use of each client 110, for example, if the average number of clients is "6", the frequency of use is higher. The actual synchronization time of the six clients 110 is set to "2012/10/25 12:00:00" (ie, remains as it is); the other six clients 110 also set the actual synchronization time according to the frequency of use, such as: set to One hour (ie "2012/10/25 13:00:00") is synchronized. In particular, the method of adjusting and setting the actual synchronization time of each client 110 according to the frequency of use of the client 110 and the number of clients having the same time zone and synchronization time does not deviate from the application of the present invention. category.

The synchronization module 125 is configured to synchronize the synchronization server 120 and the client 110 according to the actual synchronization time adjusted and set by the adjustment module 124. Since the synchronization processing method is a conventional technique, no further description is provided here. .

Next, please refer to FIG. 2, which is a flowchart of a method for synchronous equalization according to the present invention. The steps include: storing a usage record and synchronization time of the client 110 (step 210); After the connection message of the client 110 is detected, the location information and the usage time of the client 110 are detected, and a time zone flag is generated according to the location information, and the time zone flag and the usage time are recorded in the corresponding use of the client 110. Recording (step 220); calculating the frequency of use of each client 110 by usage time, and calculating the number of clients having the same time zone flag and synchronization time according to the usage record of each client 110 (step 230); The frequency of use and the number of clients adjust and set the actual synchronization time of each client 110 (step 240); according to the actual synchronization time, the synchronization server 120 and the client 110 are synchronized (step 250). Through the above steps, the location information of the client 110 can be detected by the synchronization server 120 to generate a time zone flag, and the frequency of use is calculated according to the usage time of the client 110, and has the same time zone mark and synchronization time according to the frequency of use. Number of clients set per client The actual synchronization time of 110 is such that the synchronization processing time point of each client 110 and the synchronization server 120 is dispersed.

In addition, after step 240, according to the priority level of each client 110 stored in advance, the priority level is used to match the frequency of use and the number of clients to adjust and set the actual synchronization time of each client (step 241). . In other words, in addition to the original adjustment according to the frequency of use and the number of clients, the priority level of the client 110 also affects the actual synchronization time of the client 110 that is finally set.

The following is a description of the following examples in conjunction with "3" and "4". Please refer to "3", "3" is the first client data stored in the synchronous servo port of the present invention. schematic diagram. As mentioned above, the storage module 121 of the synchronization server 120 stores the usage record and synchronization time of each client 110. In actual implementation, the storage manner can be implemented through the data table 300, and each client 110 corresponds to a data table. The detection module 122 records the time zone mark and the use time in the usage record 310, and is stored together with the synchronization time 320 in the data table 300 corresponding to the client 110. In this way, the computing module 123 can calculate the usage frequency of each client 110 according to the usage time in the usage record 310 according to the data table 300, and calculate according to the synchronization time 320 and the time zone flag in the usage record 310. The number of clients in the same condition is provided by the adjustment module 124 to adjust and set the actual synchronization time of each client 110, so that the synchronization module 125 can synchronize the synchronization server 120 and the client 110 according to the actual synchronization time. In actual implementation, if all clients 110 are to be recorded in the same data table, a recognition field (not shown) must be added to distinguish each client 110.

As shown in Figure 4, Figure 4 is the second schematic diagram of the client data stored in the synchronous server. As mentioned above, the storage module 121 can also be pre-stored. The priority level of each client 110 is stored. Similarly, in actual implementation, the priority level may also be stored in the data table corresponding to the client 110 as a priority data table 400. The priority data table 400 includes the usage record 410, the synchronization time 420, and the priority. Level 430. The usage record 410 includes a time zone tag and usage time. Through the priority data table 400, the adjustment module 124 can set the actual synchronization time of each client 110 according to the usage frequency and the number of clients calculated by the calculation module 123, together with the priority level 430. In particular, the actual synchronization time set by the adjustment module 124 will replace the time previously recorded by the synchronization time 420.

In summary, it can be seen that the difference between the present invention and the prior art is that the location information of the client is detected by the synchronization server to generate a time zone flag, and the frequency of use is calculated according to the usage time of the client, and has the same frequency according to the frequency of use. The number of clients in the time zone tag and the synchronization time sets the actual synchronization time of each client, so as to disperse the synchronization processing time point of each client and the synchronization server, and the technical problem can be solved by the prior art, thereby achieving Improve the technical efficiency of load balancing for synchronous processing.
