Detailed Description
The following detailed description of embodiments of the present application will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present application, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, and are not intended to limit the present application.
A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a novel Network Content service system, which is constructed based on an Internet Protocol (IP) Network and provides Content Delivery and service according to efficiency requirements, quality requirements, and Content order of Content access and application. In a broad sense, the CDN represents a network application service model with high quality, high efficiency and clear network order built based on a network.
In the related art, various optimization algorithms are proposed for improving the content distribution speed, and most of the optimization algorithms can only perform static optimization on the premise that the storage space is limited, so that the storage space becomes a main bottleneck. However, if CDN optimization is performed only through an optimization algorithm, only the number of resources that can be stored by the edge node can be increased, and the customer perception of the hotspot region or the hotspot time cannot be effectively improved.
Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a content distribution method and an edge server, where when a terminal requests to obtain a first content, and the edge server does not store the first content and has insufficient remaining storage space, a second content with lower interest degree, larger occupied storage space, or smaller average access times than the first content is selected, the second content is deleted, the first content is obtained and stored from a central server, and the first content is sent to the terminal, so that the storage content of the edge server is optimized, and the customer perception of a hot spot area or a hot spot time can be improved.
A first aspect of the present application provides a content distribution method. Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a content distribution method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method is applicable to an edge server. As shown in fig. 1, the content distribution method includes the steps of:
step S110, receiving a content acquisition request sent by the terminal.
The content obtaining request is used for requesting the edge server to send the first content to the terminal.
In some embodiments, when the user has a need to obtain the first content, a content obtaining request is sent to the edge server through the terminal. The content obtaining request may include one or more of information such as a content name, a content type, a target version, and the like, so that the edge server accurately feeds back the first content to the terminal in time according to the content obtaining request.
It should be noted that, in general, the terminal sends a content acquisition request to the edge server with the minimum communication distance to reduce the content acquisition delay.
And step S120, under the condition that the first content is not stored and the residual storage space is not enough to store the first content, selecting and deleting the second content from the stored content of the edge server.
The remaining storage space is the space which is not occupied in the edge server and is used for storing the content.
In some embodiments, the second content comprises stored content that is less cost effective to store than the first content. In some specific implementations, the cost performance of storage may be measured using attributes such as an interest level, an occupied storage space, a storage space occupied by a unit interest level, access times, and an average access time of a user. Wherein the interestingness is used for characterizing the user's interest level in the content, and in some specific implementations, the interestingness includes the number of accessing users.
It should be noted that, the above manner for measuring the cost performance of the storage is only an example, and the present application is not limited thereto.
In some embodiments, in response to a content acquisition request from a terminal, an edge server detects whether first content is included in its stored content. And in the case that the stored content comprises the first content, transmitting the first content to the terminal. In the case where it is determined that the first content is not included in the stored contents, it is determined whether the remaining storage space is sufficient to store the first content, and in the case where it is determined that the remaining storage space is insufficient to store the first content, the second content is selected from the stored contents and deleted.
The sum of the storage space occupied by the second content and the remaining storage space is greater than or equal to the storage space required by the first content (i.e. the first storage space). The storage space occupied by the second content can be released through the deletion operation of the second content, and the first content can be cached by utilizing the storage space corresponding to the second content and the residual storage space.
Step S130, the first content is acquired and stored by the central server.
The central server is a server in the center of the content distribution network, and the storage capacity, the computing capacity and the like of the central server are superior to those of the edge servers. Therefore, in the case where some content is not stored locally at the edge server, the content can be acquired from the center server and the acquired content can be stored locally at the edge server so as to be transmitted to the terminal in time when the terminal requests the content.
Step S140, transmitting the first content to the terminal.
In some embodiments, the edge server transmits the first content to the terminal through a WIFI network or a cellular mobile communication network.
In this embodiment, a content acquisition request sent by a terminal is received; under the condition that the first content is not stored and the residual storage space is not enough to store the first content, selecting and deleting second content from the stored content of the edge server; acquiring and storing first content through a central server; the first content is transmitted to the terminal. According to the method, under the condition that a terminal requests to acquire first content, an edge server does not store the first content and the residual storage space is insufficient, second content which is lower in interestingness, larger in occupied storage space or less in average access frequency compared with the first content is selected, the second content is deleted, the first content is acquired from a central server and stored, and the first content is sent to the terminal, so that the storage content of the edge server is optimized, and the customer perception of a hot spot area or hot spot time can be improved.
It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the content obtaining request includes target version information, and the target version is a version of the first content requested to be obtained by the terminal. The edge server acquires version information of the first content and determines whether the version information of the first content is consistent with the target version information, in the case that it is determined that the first content is included in the stored content. When the two are consistent, the version of the first content stored by the edge server is the same as the version of the first content required to be acquired by the terminal, and therefore, the edge server transmits the first content to the terminal. When the two versions are not consistent, it is indicated that the version of the first content stored by the edge server is different from the version of the first content required to be acquired by the terminal, and the edge server cannot directly send the stored first content to the terminal, but needs to acquire the first content matched with the target version from the central server. Specifically, the edge server first determines whether the remaining storage space is sufficient to store the first content, and in case the remaining storage space is sufficient to store the first content, acquires and stores the first content matching the target version from the center server, and transmits the first content to the terminal. On the contrary, if the remaining storage space is not enough to store the first content, the edge server selects and deletes the second content from the stored content, then acquires and stores the first content matched with the target version from the central server, and sends the first content to the terminal.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a content distribution method according to another embodiment of the present application, where the method is applicable to an edge server. As shown in fig. 2, the content distribution method includes the steps of:
step S210, receiving a content acquisition request sent by the terminal.
Step S210 in this embodiment is the same as step S110 in this embodiment, and is not described herein again.
In step S221, when it is determined that the first content is not stored and the remaining storage space is insufficient to store the first content, the interestingness of the first content and the interestingness of each stored content are determined.
Wherein the interest level is used for representing the interest level of the user in the content. It should be noted that "user" mentioned herein is a generalized concept, and includes all users that can obtain content, and is not particularly limited to the end user that sends the content obtaining request in step S210.
In some embodiments, interestingness may be characterized using user access numbers. For a certain content, when the number of the user accesses is larger, it indicates that the user has a higher interest level in the content, and accordingly, the interest level of the content is larger, and otherwise, the interest level of the content is smaller.
In step S222, a second storage space occupied by each stored content is determined.
In practical applications, the second storage space occupied by different stored contents may be different, and the size of the second storage space is related to the type of the content, the amount of data included in the content, and the like.
For example, the stored content includes a long video type, a short video type, and a text type, and accordingly, the second storage space occupied by the stored content of the long video type is the largest, the second storage space occupied by the stored content of the short video type is at an intermediate value, and the second storage space occupied by the stored content of the text type is the smallest.
It should be noted that, the above relation between the size of the content type and the second storage space is only an example, and in some embodiments, there is a case where the storage space occupied by the content of the text type is larger than that occupied by the content of the video type, which is not limited in this application.
Step S223, calculating a ratio of the interest degrees of the first storage space and the first content, and obtaining a first ratio corresponding to the first content.
The first storage space is a storage space required by the first content.
The first ratio represents a storage space occupied by a unit interest level of the first content. In general, the larger the storage space occupied by the unit interest degree is, the lower the storage cost performance of the corresponding content is, and conversely, the higher the storage cost performance of the corresponding content is.
Step S224, calculating a ratio of the interest degrees of the second storage space and the corresponding stored content, and obtaining a second ratio corresponding to each stored content.
Wherein the second ratio represents a storage space occupied by the unit interest level of each stored content.
Step S225, selects the stored content with the second ratio greater than the first ratio as the candidate second content.
If the second ratio is greater than the first ratio, it indicates that the storage space occupied by the unit interest degree of the part of the stored content is greater than that of the first content, in other words, the storage cost performance of the part of the stored content is lower than that of the first content. Therefore, the part of the content is used as the alternative second content to select the second content to be deleted.
Step S226, selecting the second content from the candidate second contents, and deleting the second content.
The second content is a subset of the alternative second content, that is, the second content may include one or more alternative second contents.
In some embodiments, selecting the second content from the alternative second content and deleting the second content comprises: firstly, according to a second ratio of the alternative second contents, the alternative second contents are sequenced from small to large to obtain an alternative sequence. And secondly, selecting the candidate second content arranged at the first N bits from the candidate sequence as the second content according to the difference value between the first storage space and the residual storage space, and deleting the second content. Wherein, N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and the sum of the total storage space occupied by the first N bits of the candidate second content and the remaining storage space should be greater than or equal to the first storage space, so as to ensure that the edge server has enough storage space to store the first content.
In some other embodiments, selecting the second content from the alternative second contents and deleting the second content includes: firstly, calculating a difference value between a second storage space corresponding to the alternative second content and the first storage space; and secondly, selecting the difference with the minimum value from the differences larger than zero, taking the alternative second content corresponding to the difference with the minimum value as the second content, and deleting the second content. Since the second storage space corresponding to the second content is larger than the first storage space, the edge server has enough storage space to store the first content only by deleting one second content.
It should be noted that the above manner for selecting the second content is only an example, and the present application is not limited to this.
Step S230, the first content is obtained and stored by the central server.
Step S240, the first content is transmitted to the terminal.
Steps S230 to S240 in this embodiment are the same as steps S130 to S140 in this embodiment, and are not described herein again.
In this embodiment, candidate second contents are screened from stored contents according to a ratio of a storage space to an interest degree, so that candidate second contents with a storage cost performance lower than that of the first contents can be obtained, after the second contents are selected from the candidate second contents and deleted, the edge server has enough storage space to store the first contents, and the stored contents of the edge server are optimized, so that the customer perception degree of a hot spot area or a hot spot time can be improved.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a content distribution method according to still another embodiment of the present application, where the method is applicable to an edge server. As shown in fig. 3, the content distribution method includes the steps of:
step S310, receiving a content acquisition request sent by the terminal.
In step S321, in a case where it is determined that the first content is not stored and the remaining storage space is insufficient to store the first content, the interestingness of the first content and the interestingness of each stored content are determined.
Steps S310 to S321 in this embodiment are the same as steps S210 to S221 in the previous embodiment of the present application, and are not described herein again.
Step S322, selecting a third content from the stored contents according to the interest level of the first content and the interest levels of the stored contents.
Wherein the interestingness of the third content is less than the interestingness of the first content.
In step S323, a third storage space occupied by the third content is determined.
Wherein the number of the third contents may be one or more. When there are a plurality of third contents, it is necessary to separately determine a third storage space occupied by each of the third contents.
In step S324, a third content with a third storage space greater than or equal to the first storage space is selected as the second content.
The first storage space is a storage space required by the first content.
The candidate second content determined through the above steps is stored content with the interestingness smaller than that of the first content and the storage space larger than or equal to that of the first content. Therefore, the storage space occupied by the unit interest degree of the alternative second content is larger than that of the first content. In other words, the cost-effective storage of the alternative second content is less than the cost-effective storage of the first content.
Step S325, select the second content from the candidate second contents, and delete the second content.
In some embodiments, considering that storage spaces occupied by the alternative second contents (i.e., the third storage spaces) are all greater than or equal to the first storage space, the alternative second content with the smallest third storage space is selected as the second content, and the second content is deleted.
In some other embodiments, any one of the alternative second contents is selected as the second content, and the second content is deleted.
It should be noted that the above manner for selecting the second content is only an example, and the present application is not limited to this.
Step S330, obtaining and storing the first content through the central server.
Step S340, transmitting the first content to the terminal.
Steps S330 to S340 in this embodiment are the same as steps S230 to S240 in the previous embodiment of the present application, and are not described herein again.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, after determining the third storage space occupied by the third content, a storage space threshold (the storage space threshold is greater than or equal to the difference) may be set according to the difference between the first storage space and the remaining storage space, so that according to the storage space threshold, the third content whose third storage space is greater than or equal to the storage space threshold is selected as the second content to be selected. When a second content is selected from the candidate second contents, a third storage space closest to the difference (i.e., the difference between the first storage space and the remaining storage space) in the third storage space corresponding to the candidate second content is determined, and the corresponding candidate second content is determined as the second content.
In this embodiment, candidate second contents are screened from stored contents sequentially through the interest degree and the storage space, so that candidate second contents with a storage cost performance lower than that of the first contents can be obtained, after the second contents are selected from the candidate second contents and deleted, the edge server has enough storage space to store the first contents, and the stored contents of the edge server are optimized, so that the customer perception degree of a hot spot area or a hot spot time can be improved.
Fig. 4 is a flowchart of a content distribution method according to another embodiment of the present application, where the method is applicable to an edge server. As shown in fig. 4, the content distribution method includes the steps of:
step S410, receiving a content acquisition request sent by the terminal.
In step S421, when it is determined that the first content is not stored and the remaining storage space is not enough to store the first content, the interestingness of the first content and the interestingness of each stored content are determined.
Steps S410 to S421 in this embodiment are the same as steps S210 to S221 in another embodiment of the present application, and are not described herein again.
In step S422, the number of times of access to the first content and the number of times of access to each of the stored contents are acquired.
In some embodiments, the access times of the first content and the access times of each stored content are obtained according to a historical access record in a preset time period. The preset time period may be one month, one week or one day, which is not limited in the present application.
Step S423, calculating a ratio of the number of times of accessing the first content to the interest level, and obtaining a third ratio corresponding to the first content.
The ratio of the access times to the interestingness represents the access times corresponding to the unit interestingness. In general, the higher the access times corresponding to the unit interest degree is, the higher the user's interest degree is, and correspondingly, the higher the storage performance-price ratio is, and on the contrary, the lower the storage performance-price ratio is.
In some embodiments, the interestingness is represented by the number of user visits, and the visit number corresponding to a unit interestingness is the ratio of the number of visiting users to the visit number, and the physical meaning of the visit number is the average visit number of users. Accordingly, the third ratio represents the average number of user accesses corresponding to the first content. If the third ratio is larger, the higher the average access frequency of the user of the first content is, the higher the storage cost performance of the first content is; conversely, if the smaller the third ratio is, the lower the average number of times of user access to the first content is, the lower the cost performance of storing the first content is.
Step S424, a ratio of the access times of each stored content to the interest level is calculated, and a fourth ratio corresponding to each stored content is obtained.
Wherein the fourth ratio represents the number of accesses corresponding to the unit interest level of each stored content. When the interestingness is characterized by the number of user accesses, the fourth ratio represents the average number of user accesses corresponding to the stored content.
Step S425 selects the stored content with the fourth ratio smaller than the third ratio as the second content alternative.
If the fourth ratio is smaller than the third ratio, it is indicated that the number of accesses corresponding to the unit interest level of the part of stored content is smaller than that of the first content, that is, the cost performance of the part of stored content is lower than that of the first content, and therefore, the part of content is selected as the second content to be selected.
In step S426, the second content is selected from the candidate second contents, and the second content is deleted.
In some embodiments, selecting the second content from the alternative second content and deleting the second content comprises: firstly, according to a fourth ratio of the alternative second contents, the alternative second contents are sequenced from small to large to obtain an alternative sequence. And secondly, according to the difference value between the first storage space and the residual storage space, selecting the candidate second content arranged at the top M bits from the candidate sequence as the second content, and deleting the second content. And M is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and the sum of the occupied storage space and the residual storage space corresponding to the first M-bit alternative second content is greater than or equal to the first storage space so as to ensure that the edge server has a storage space for storing the first content.
In some other embodiments, selecting the second content from the alternative second contents and deleting the second content includes: firstly, calculating a difference value between a second storage space corresponding to the alternative second content and the first storage space; and secondly, selecting the difference with the minimum value from the differences larger than zero, taking the alternative second content corresponding to the difference with the minimum value as the second content, and deleting the second content. Since the second storage space corresponding to the second content is larger than the first storage space, the edge server has enough storage space to store the first content only by deleting one second content.
It should be noted that the above manner for selecting the second content is only an example, and the present application is not limited to this.
Step S430, obtaining and storing the first content through the central server.
Step S440, the first content is transmitted to the terminal.
Steps S430 to S440 in this embodiment are the same as steps S230 to S240 in another embodiment of the present application, and are not described herein again.
In this embodiment, the alternative second content is selected from the stored contents according to the ratio of the number of accesses to the interest level, so that the alternative second content having a lower storage cost performance than the first content can be obtained, after the second content is selected from the alternative second content and deleted, the edge server has enough storage space to store the first content, and the stored content of the edge server is optimized, so that the customer perception of the hot spot area or the hot spot time can be improved.
It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the interestingness of the first content is determined through a preset interestingness obtaining model. Wherein the interestingness acquisition model is a model established based on the content distribution network and the warehouse model for determining the number of access users of the content.
A scenario in which an APP (Application) carrier propagates content to a mobile terminal of a user is taken as an example for description. In particular, the edge server has a certain storage capacity, and can cache the content in which the user is interested. Users may obtain content of interest (e.g., video content) through the edge server, such users being referred to as "patients". Moreover, when affected by APP push or the surrounding population, the user may have renewed interest in what was once viewed, i.e., the patient may still be infected again by the carrier after recovery, and thus become again a patient. Based on this, users can be classified into a susceptible class and an affected class.
Assuming that the total number of users at time t is n (t), s (t) represents the number of susceptible users at time t, and i (t) represents the number of patients infected by users at time t, n (t) is s (t) + i (t). The APP carrier can selectively increase the content of interest of the user in order to improve the activity of the user, so that the APP carrier can be divided into an easy class and an interestThe diseases are classified into two categories. Suppose the total number of APPs at time t is NA(t) with SA(t) the number of APP susceptible persons at time t, denoted by IA(t) indicates the number of APP patients at time t, N is presentA(t)=SA(t)+IA(t) of (d). Further suppose that the user can obtain the content through the APP carrier, if the probability of the user installing a certain APP on the terminal is b, the probability of the content recommended by the APP carrier for people to attract is beta0Then people obtain the probability lambda of the content data through the APP carrierA=bβ0IA(t) of (d). The probability of the user being influenced by surrounding people to acquire the content is lambdav=β1I (t), wherein beta1Is the probability that the user is affected by the surrounding population. APP carrier increases probability lambda of content in which a user is interestedh=β2I (t), wherein beta2The probability of content is increased for the APP operator according to the interest of the user. According to the assumptions and the bin model, the interestingness obtaining model can be established.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of an interestingness obtaining model provided in the embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 5, M represents the total number of APP carriers commonly used by users in the preset region, and H represents the total number of users (i.e., the total number of terminals) in the preset region. Assuming that the total number of the APP carriers and the total number of the users are relatively stable in a certain time period, therefore, the birth rate and the death rate of the APP are set to be delta, the mobile user access rate and the mobile user access rate in the area are set to be mu, and the expected values of the number of the newborn APP carriers and the number of the crowd are delta M and mu H respectively. Suppose that the population interested in short video is scaled by gamma2Become uninteresting, i.e. the patient is given a ratio of gamma2Recovering health, and becoming susceptible again; the user pays attention to the interested content data through the influence of the APP carrier and the surrounding people, and the infection rates are lambda respectivelyAAnd λv(ii) a The probability that the APP carrier increases the content data according to the interest of the mobile user is lambdah. From the above, the following equation set (1) can be established:
Figure BDA0003466638490000151
because M is SA(t)+IA(t), and H ═ s (t) + i (t), so equation set (1) can be simplified to equation set (2):
