In the embodiment of the present invention, in an MEC node processing service scenario, when a residual computing power of a certain MEC node (e.g., a first MEC node) is insufficient, at least one MEC node needs to be determined to assist the first MEC node in processing a target service.
With reference to the communication system shown in fig. 1, taking the first MEC node as the MEC node 1034 in fig. 1 as an example, the service processing method provided in the embodiment of the present invention is completely described from the perspective of interaction among devices in the service processing system 103 of the communication system, so as to illustrate a process in which the MEC management device determines at least one MEC node that can assist the first MEC node in processing the target service and performs service processing.
As shown in fig. 3, the service processing method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may include S101 to S111.
S101, the first MEC node acquires a service processing request message of a target service.
Wherein, the service processing request message includes a target computing power corresponding to the target service.
It should be understood that, when the UE has a target service that needs to request the first MEC node to process, the network device may send a service processing request message of the target service to the bearer network device, and the bearer network device sends the service processing request message to the first MEC node, so that the first MEC node processes the target service.
S102, under the condition that the residual computing power of the first MEC node is smaller than the target computing power, the first MEC node sends a computing power sharing request message to MEC management equipment.
The computing power sharing request message is used for requesting the MEC management device to allocate at least one MEC node to assist the first MEC node in processing the target service, and the computing power sharing request message includes the target computing power corresponding to the target service.
It is to be understood that, when the remaining computing power of the first MEC node is less than the target computing power, it indicates that the first MEC node has insufficient computing power to support its own processing of the target service, at this time, the first MEC node may send a computing power sharing request message to the MEC management device, request the MEC management device to allocate at least one MEC node thereto to assist the first MEC node in processing the target service, that is, request the MEC management device to determine that at least one MEC node assists the first MEC node in sharing the target computing power.
Table 1 below shows an example of a message format of the computing power sharing request message, where the computing power sharing request message includes identification information of a first MEC node, an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the first MEC node, used computing power of the first MEC node, remaining computing power of the first MEC node, and target computing power, as shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0002674469890000111
From table 1, it can be determined that the remaining computing power of the first MEC node is less than the target computing power, and the first MEC node needs at least one MEC node to share 10k (thousand) operations per second (TOPS) computing power for the MEC node to complete the processing of the target traffic.
S103, the MEC management equipment receives a calculation power sharing request message sent by the first MEC node.
It should be understood that the MEC management device is a management device of a plurality of MEC nodes, and is responsible for managing the plurality of MEC nodes. When there is an effort sharing requirement for one MEC node (e.g., a first MEC node) of the plurality of MEC nodes, the MEC management device may determine at least one MEC node from at least two MEC nodes (i.e., MEC nodes other than the first MEC node of the plurality of MEC nodes) to assist the first MEC node in processing the target traffic.
S104, the MEC management equipment determines the service distribution proportion of the target service according to the target computing power, the residual computing power of the first MEC node and the residual computing power of at least one MEC node.
The service distribution proportion comprises a first occupation ratio and an occupation ratio of each MEC node in the at least one MEC node to process the target service, wherein the first occupation ratio is the occupation ratio of the first MEC node to process the target service.
Optionally, before S104, the service processing method provided in the embodiment of the present invention further includes:
the MEC management device receives computing power state information of a plurality of MEC nodes.
Wherein the computing power state information of one MEC node comprises the remaining computing power of the MEC node.
It should be understood that a plurality of MEC nodes (including the first MEC node) may periodically report their computing power state information to the MEC management device, that is, report their respective remaining computing powers to the MEC management device, and thus, the MEC management device may obtain the remaining computing powers of each MEC node in the plurality of MEC nodes.
In an implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, when the MEC management device determines that all of the at least one MEC node needs to participate in the processing process of the target service, the step S104 may be implemented by steps a to c.
Step a, the MEC management equipment determines the sum of the calculation power to be allocated of the first MEC node and the calculation power to be allocated of at least one MEC node according to the target calculation power and the residual calculation power of the first MEC node.
The calculation power to be shared of the first MEC node is the residual calculation power of the first MEC node, and the sum of the calculation power to be shared of the at least one MEC node is the difference value between the target calculation power and the residual calculation power of the first MEC node.
And step b, the MEC management equipment determines the calculation power to be allocated of each MEC node in the at least one MEC node according to the sum of the residual calculation power of the at least one MEC node and the calculation power to be allocated of the at least one MEC node.
Optionally, one MEC node of the at least one MEC node should share the following computational power:
Figure BDA0002674469890000121
wherein, ω is1Representing the contribution of an MEC node0Representing a sum of deserved budget forces, ω'1Represents the residual computing power, ω'0Representing the total remaining computation power of the at least one MEC node (i.e., the sum of the remaining computation power of each of the at least one MEC node).
And step c, the MEC management equipment determines the service distribution proportion of the target service according to the contribution capacity of the first MEC node and the contribution capacity of each MEC node in at least one MEC node.
Illustratively, in connection with fig. 1, assume that the first MEC node is MEC node 1034 and at least one MEC node is MEC node 1035, MEC node 1036, and MEC node 1037. Assuming the target computing power is 20k TOPS and the remaining computing power of the first MEC node (i.e., MEC node 1034) is 10k TOPS and the remaining computing powers of MEC node 1035, MEC node 1036, and MEC node 1037 are 10k TOPS, 5k TOPS, and 5k TOPS, respectively, then the MEC management apparatus determines the accrual power of MEC node 1034, the accrual power of MEC node 1035, the accrual power of MEC node 1036, and the accrual power of MEC node 1037 as 10k TOPS, 5k TOPS, 2.5k TOPS, and 2.5k TOPS, respectively.
The service distribution proportion is a ratio of the calculation power to be distributed of the first MEC node to the calculation power to be distributed of each MEC node in the at least one MEC node.
With reference to the example in step b, the MEC management device determines that the traffic distribution ratio of the target traffic is 4:2:1: 1. Specifically, the plurality of ratios included in the traffic distribution ratio are 0.5 (first ratio), 0.25, 0.125, and 0.125, respectively.
In another implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, the step S104 may also be implemented by steps d to g.
And d, the MEC management equipment determines the sum of the calculation power to be allocated of the first MEC node and the calculation power to be allocated of at least one MEC node according to the target calculation power and the residual calculation power of the first MEC node.
Wherein, the calculation power to be shared of the first MEC node is the residual calculation power of the first MEC node, and the sum of the calculation powers to be shared of the at least one MEC node is the difference value between the target calculation power and the residual calculation power of the first MEC node.
Step e, the MEC management device determines whether the remaining computing power of the second MEC node is larger than or equal to the sum of the computing power to be allocated of at least one MEC node.
Wherein the second MEC node is an MEC node with the largest residual computational power in the at least one MEC node.
And f, under the condition that the residual calculation power of the second MEC node is larger than or equal to the sum of the calculation power which is supposed to be distributed of at least one MEC node, the MEC management equipment determines the sum of the calculation power which is supposed to be distributed of at least one MEC node as the calculation power which is supposed to be distributed of the second MEC node.
And g, the MEC management equipment determines the ratio of the calculation power to be shared of the first MEC node to the calculation power to be shared of the second MEC node as the service distribution proportion of the target service.
It should be understood that, at this time, the first MEC node and the second MEC node can share the target power, that is, the first MEC node can complete the processing of the target service with the assistance of the second MEC node.
Optionally, in a case where the MEC management device determines that the remaining computing power of the second MEC node is less than the sum of the accrual computing powers of at least one MEC node, the MEC management device determines the remaining computing power of the second MEC node as the accrual computing power of the second MEC node, and the MEC management device determines whether the remaining computing power of the third MEC node is greater than or equal to the accrual computing power difference.
The third MEC node is an MEC node with the largest residual calculation power in the at least one MEC node except the second MEC node, and the difference value of the calculation power to be allocated is the difference value between the sum of the calculation power to be allocated of the at least one MEC node and the calculation power to be allocated of the second MEC node.
Similarly, if the remaining computing power of the third MEC node is greater than or equal to the difference between the calculation forces to be shared, the MEC management device determines the difference between the calculation forces to be distributed as the calculation force to be distributed of the third MEC node, and at this time, the service distribution proportion of the target service is the ratio of the calculation force to be distributed of the first MEC node to the calculation force to be distributed of the second MEC node and the calculation force to be distributed of the third MEC node; otherwise, the MEC management apparatus continues to allocate the sum of the allowability calculations of the at least one MEC node based on the remaining calculation power of the MEC node having the smaller remaining calculation power (e.g., the fourth MEC node).
Exemplarily, in connection with fig. 1, assuming that MEC node 1034 is the first MEC node, MEC management apparatus 1033 obtains 10k TOPS, 6k TOPS, 3k TOPS, and 2k TOPS from MEC node 1034, MEC node 1035, MEC node 1036, and MEC node 1037, respectively, for their respective residual powers. Assuming that the target computation force is 20k TOPS, the MEC management apparatus 1033 determines that the computation forces to be distributed to the first MEC node, the second MEC node (i.e., MEC node 1034), the third MEC node (i.e., MEC node 1035), and the fourth MEC node (i.e., MEC node 1036) are 10k TOPS, 6k TOPS, 3k TOPS, and 1k TOPS, respectively, and the traffic distribution ratio of the target traffic is 10:6:3: 1. Wherein, the first occupation ratio is 0.5, the second occupation ratio (namely occupation ratio of the second MEC node to process the target service) is 0.3, the third occupation ratio (namely occupation ratio of the third MEC node to process the target service) is 0.15, and the fourth occupation ratio (namely occupation ratio of the fourth MEC node to process the target service) is 0.05.
In an implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, in a case that the remaining computing power of the first MEC node is equal to 0, that is, when the first MEC node cannot participate in processing of the target service, the MEC management device may migrate all the target service to the at least one MEC node for processing, for example, when the remaining computing power of the second MEC node is greater than or equal to the target computing power, the second MEC node may process the target service instead of the first MEC node.
And S105, the MEC management equipment sends target service configuration information to the SDN controller.
Wherein the target service configuration information includes a service distribution proportion of the target service and identification information of at least one MEC node.
It should be understood that the MEC management device sends the target service configuration information to the SDN controller, so that the SDN controller sends the target service configuration information to the bearer network device. Because the bearer network device may determine to send the data packet of the target service to the first MEC node when receiving the service processing request message, so that the first MEC node processes the target service, the bearer network device need not to obtain the identification information of the first MEC node, and only needs to obtain the identification information of the at least one MEC node (i.e., the MEC node assisting the first MEC node in processing the target service), so that the bearer network device may send the data packet corresponding to the target service to the at least one MEC node.
S106, the SDN controller receives target service configuration information sent by the MEC management equipment.
And S107, the SDN controller sends target service configuration information to the bearing network equipment.

In connection with the description of the above embodiments, it should be understood that the target service configuration information includes a service allocation proportion of the target service and identification information of at least one MEC node, which is an MEC node assisting the first MEC node in processing the target service.
S109, the bearer network device sends data messages corresponding to the target service to the first MEC node and the at least one MEC node according to the service distribution proportion of the target service, so that the first MEC node and the at least one MEC node process the data messages of the target service.
It should be understood that, after receiving the target service configuration information, the bearer network device may generate at least one piece of routing information, where the original routing information is used to instruct the bearer network device to send a data packet corresponding to the first occupation ratio to the first MEC node, and the at least one newly added routing information is used to instruct the bearer network device to send the data packet of the target service corresponding to the occupation ratio, where the target service is processed by each MEC node in the at least one MEC node, to each MEC node in the at least one MEC node, for example, the first routing information may instruct the bearer network device to send the data packet of the target service corresponding to the second occupation ratio to the second MEC node.
In an implementation manner, after receiving the target service configuration information, the bearer network device may further send the target service configuration information to the first MEC node.
Specifically, after receiving the target service configuration information, the first MEC node processes a data packet corresponding to the target service according to a first percentage; and respectively sending data messages corresponding to the target service to at least one MEC node according to the proportion of each MEC node in the at least one MEC node for processing the target service, namely generating at least one piece of routing information by the first MEC node. It should be understood that the role of the at least one routing information generated by the first MEC node is the same as or similar to the role of the at least one routing information generated by the bearer network device, and is not described herein again.
S110, the first MEC node receives a data message corresponding to a target service sent by the bearing network equipment according to the first proportion.
In connection with the description of the above embodiments, it should be understood that the first percentage is a percentage of the traffic distribution of the target traffic, which is determined by the MEC management device according to the target computing power, the remaining computing power of the first MEC node, and the remaining computing power of at least one MEC node that may assist the first MEC node in processing the target traffic, for the first MEC node to process the target traffic.
And S111, the first MEC node processes the data message corresponding to the target service according to the first proportion.
It should be understood that, the at least one MEC node also processes the data packet of the target service after receiving the data packet of the target service sent by the bearer network device. In this manner, at least one MEC node may complete a process that assists the first MEC node in processing the target traffic.
The embodiment of the invention provides a service processing method, wherein when the residual computing power of a first MEC node is less than a target computing power (namely, the computing power corresponding to a target service), the first MEC node sends a computing power sharing request message to MEC management equipment, and the computing power sharing request message is used for requesting the MEC management equipment to allocate at least one MEC node to assist the first MEC node in processing the target service. Then, the MEC management equipment determines a service distribution proportion of the target service according to the target computing power, the residual computing power of the first MEC node and the residual computing power of at least one MEC node, wherein the service distribution proportion comprises a first occupation ratio (namely the occupation ratio of the first MEC node to process the target service) and the occupation ratio of each MEC node in the at least one MEC node to process the target service; then, the MEC management equipment sends target service configuration information to the carrying network equipment through the SDN controller, wherein the target service configuration information comprises a service distribution proportion of a target service and identification information of at least one MEC node; after receiving the target service configuration information, the bearer network device sends data messages of the target service to the first MEC node and the at least one MEC node according to the service distribution proportion of the target service; and the first MEC node processes the data message corresponding to the target service according to the first proportion, and at least one MEC node assists the first MEC node in processing the data message corresponding to the target service. In the embodiment of the present invention, when the first MEC node does not have enough computing power to support its processing target service, the first MEC node requests the MEC management device to allocate at least one MEC node to assist its processing target service, so that the first MEC node does not need to wait for the first MEC node to process the target service after completing the processing of other services (i.e., after the computing power of the first MEC node is restored), and thus the processing efficiency of the service can be improved.
