Description

Video CDN node instant capacity expansion method, scheduler and CND storage system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of CDN resource storage, in particular to a video CDN node instant capacity expansion method, a scheduler and a CND storage system.
Background
And the mainstream video CDN node adopts a Hash algorithm to position files, and the positioning comprises file distribution and file scheduling.
1. File distribution
Before the file is on line for a user to access, the file is distributed to each computer room through a network protocol (HTTP, P2P and the like), and a distribution program selects one node machine to store the file through a hash algorithm by taking a characteristic value (MD 5 value of the file) of a video as a keyword.
2. File scheduling
When a user opens a webpage to play a video, a file scheduling service is requested, and the scheduling service selects a node machine to provide service for the user through a hash algorithm by taking a characteristic value (an MD5 value of a file) of the video as a keyword.
Since the distribution and scheduling algorithms, the eigenvalues, and the hash sets are consistent, they can be addressed correctly (the same node machine is selected for distribution and scheduling).
When the disk space of the node computer is full, new files cannot be distributed, and new node computers need to be added in an expansion mode. And as the hash set is changed, the result of the scheduling hash algorithm is inconsistent with the actual storage position of the file. Therefore, files need to be migrated, services are provided after the result of the hash algorithm to be scheduled is consistent with the file storage position, and the operation and maintenance cost and the overall resource cost are high.

Detailed Description
According to the invention, CDN nodes are abstracted into a three-level structure of a machine room-a time bucket-a node machine. The time bucket is a time interval, and the node machines in the bucket only store the files distributed in the time interval. For example: some machine room has 5 machines (numbers 1,2,3,4, 5), and needs to expand 2 machines (numbers 6, 7). The current time is 20181225, the expansion time point is 20190101, and the barrel is divided into { "-20190101": 1,2,3,4,5], "20190101-": 6,7 }.
In the file distribution process, the distribution program determines which time bucket the file should be distributed to by taking the distribution starting time as a time point, and then selects a node machine to store the file in the time bucket through a hash algorithm. The file of the invention needs to contain time information, such as/C2/2018/01/31 _0/00013D94AAE045C3766D8077619D5764_ v02_1_1_1510.mp4, the time stamp of the file is 20180131, the file is distributed into a barrel of "-20190101", and the file is stored in a machine selected by Hash algorithm in [1,2,3,4,5 ].
In the process of file scheduling, a user requests a file to carry key information such as a characteristic value and a distribution time point of a video, and similar to the distribution process, a scheduler determines a time bucket to which the file should be distributed, and then selects a node machine in which the file is located to serve the user through a hash algorithm in the time bucket.
The main process steps of this embodiment are as follows:
if 5 node machines exist in a certain machine room, the node machines are numbered 1,2,3,4 and 5 respectively, 2 node machines are required to be added, the node machines are numbered 6 and 7, and operation and maintenance personnel hope to take effect when the node machines are added at 2018-08-2300: 00: 00. (Current time before 2018-08-2300: 00: 00)
And 1, configuring a node time bucket, and keeping the node machines 1,2,3,4 and 5 from the computer room to provide services all the time, stopping distributing new files at 2018-08-2300: 00:00 due to full disks, and distributing the files to the node machines 6 and 7. The machine room time bucket configuration may be recorded as { "-20180823": 1,2,3,4,5"," +20180823": 6,7" }, which takes effect immediately;
2, when the request URL is http:// disp.com/2017/08/22/BDA16493E80217E61B91EA2E6AB664D.mp4 scheduler, determining that the file is issued at 2018-08-22 and before 2018-08-2300: 00:00, selecting nodes at node machines 1,2,3,4 and 5;
3, when the request URL is http:// disp.com/2018/08/24/BDA16493E80217E61B91EA2E6AB664D.mp4 scheduler determines that the file is issued at 2018-08-24, after 2018-08-2300: 00:00, the node machine 6,7 is selected as the node.
Correspondingly, the invention also provides an embodiment of the structure of the scheduler, wherein the scheduler comprises a distribution program and a scheduler. The distribution program is used for determining a time interval corresponding to the file to be distributed by taking the distribution starting time as a time point, and selecting one node machine in the node machine group corresponding to the time interval to store the file to be distributed in the time interval; the scheduling program is used for determining a time interval corresponding to a user request file according to key information of the user request file, and selecting a node machine storing the file with the key information to provide service in the time interval.
