Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
The embodiment of the invention provides an information configuration method, an information configuration device, information configuration equipment and a storage medium, wherein when a multimedia platform provides multimedia services for a display terminal of a user by means of edge equipment provided by each equipment provider, the edge equipment of different equipment providers in different regions are different, and in order to fully utilize the equipment resource utilization rate of each edge equipment, the information configuration method, the information configuration device, the information configuration equipment and the storage medium are provided. The following are described separately.
In an embodiment of the present invention, an information configuration method is provided, where the method includes:
the method comprises the steps of obtaining first performance information of target edge equipment of a cache application to be deployed and first application information of the cache application, wherein the cache application is used for caching multimedia data used for responding to a request of a display terminal on the edge equipment; determining the number of instances of the cache application to be created when the cache application is deployed on the target edge device according to the first performance information and the first application information; and configuring the number of the instances of the cache application for the target edge device according to the number of the instances, so that the target edge device creates the instances of the cache application according to the configured number of the instances.
As can be seen from the above, in the solution provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the data according to which the number of instances of the cache application to be created on the target edge device is determined includes the first performance information and the first application information, where the first performance information indicates the performance characteristic information of the target edge device, and the first application information represents the application information of the cache application itself and can represent the running characteristic information of the cache application to a certain extent.
An application scenario of the scheme provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described below.
The multimedia platform provides audio and video services for the display terminal of the user. However, due to the limitation of the platform device and the geographic location of the user's display terminal, the situation of too long network delay may occur, which may affect the user's experience of using the display terminal. For example, the display terminal is located a relatively long geographical distance from the server that caches the video data, and the time delay of the video data received by the display terminal is relatively high when the user watches live broadcast, so that the user experiences badly when watching barrage or performing live broadcast interaction. In view of the above, the multimedia platform provides audio and video services for the display terminal of the user by means of the edge devices deployed in various regions by the collaborators, so that network delay can be reduced, the experience of the user using the display terminal can be improved, and in order to cache video data in the edge devices, a cache application needs to be deployed on the edge devices. Therefore, the embodiment of the present invention provides an information configuration scheme, which configures information for a cache application for an edge device.
In addition, if the display terminals of multiple users request the same video data at the same time, the multimedia platform needs to send the video data to multiple display terminals, so that the bandwidth occupied by the multimedia platform is too large.
The following is a description of the implementation body of the solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention.
The execution subject may be the multimedia platform, and specifically, may be a device in the multimedia platform. Hereinafter, for convenience of description, the above-described execution body is referred to as a stage device.
The following describes in detail the information configuration method provided by the embodiment of the present invention with specific embodiments.
In an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 provides a flowchart of an information configuring method, which includes the following steps S101 to S103.
Step S101: first performance information of a target edge device of a cache application to be deployed and first application information of the cache application are obtained.
Wherein the first performance information may include at least one of the following information: the device identifier, the CPU model, the CPU core number, the CPU architecture information, the memory information, the storage space information, the operating environment information of the device system, information indicating whether the system supports the container environment, the network information, and the installed application information on the current target edge device, and the like. The first application information may include at least one of the following information: the method comprises the steps of caching running environment information of the application, starting conditions, deployment geographical position requirement information, equipment resource information required by the caching application, equipment resource information required by each instance and the like.
The above-mentioned caching application is used for caching the multimedia data used for responding to the request of the display terminal on the edge device. For example, the platform device caches the video data in the edge device through a cache application installed on the edge device, and when the presentation terminal requests the multimedia platform for the video data, the multimedia platform may instruct the edge device to respond to the request based on the cached video data. The target edge device may be configured to deploy a caching application, and further, cache the video data, and the target edge device may also be configured to deploy a service application, which is described in detail below as an embodiment for deploying a service application, and will not be described in detail herein.
In one implementation manner, the platform device may first record first application information of the storage cache application, and in this case, when the first application information of the storage cache application needs to be obtained, the platform device directly reads and obtains the first application information from the cached information.
An implementation of obtaining the first performance information is described below.
In one implementation, the platform device sends a first performance information obtaining request to the target edge device according to a device identifier of the target edge device, and the target edge device returns current first performance information to the platform device after receiving the first performance information obtaining request.
In another implementation, the target edge device continuously sends the first performance information to the platform device at certain time intervals. And after the platform equipment receives the first performance information, the platform equipment specifies a position in the database to record the first performance information of the target edge equipment. When the first performance information of the target edge device needs to be obtained, the platform device may directly search the first performance information of the target edge device from the database. The platform device continuously obtains the data of the edge device in a timing mode, and the platform device uniformly manages and arranges, so that the process of obtaining each piece of information is simplified, and the operation and maintenance of the system are simplified.
Specifically, the platform device and the target edge device may establish a connection. The connection may be HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol), so that the target edge device may send the first performance information to the platform device through the HTTP connection.
Step S102: and determining the number of instances of the cache application to be created when the cache application is deployed on the target edge device according to the first performance information and the first application information.
After the edge device installs the caching application, an instance needs to be created for the caching application, and then multimedia data caching is performed through the instance. When the target edge device creates an instance of the caching application, the platform device allocates certain device resources to the created instance, so that the platform device can cache the multimedia data in the target edge device by using the device resources allocated to the instance. The size of the device resources provided by the target edge device for each instance of the created caching application can be adjusted in a customized manner, and is related to the declared resource amount of each instance.
Specific implementations for determining the number of the above examples are described below.
In one implementation, the available device resources of the target edge device are obtained according to the first performance information, and then the number of instances of the cache application to be created by the target edge device is determined according to the available device resources and the first application information. For example, the quotient is obtained by dividing the amount of available device resources by the amount of declared resources of the caching application in the first application information, and the quotient is taken as the number of instances of the caching application to be created.
In another implementation manner, a service application may also be deployed in the target edge device, and in this case, a manner of determining the number of instances of the cache application to be created may be referred to in the subsequent embodiments, which is not described in detail herein.
Step S103: and configuring the number of instances of the cache application for the target edge device according to the number of the instances, so that the target edge device creates the instances of the cache application according to the configured number of the instances.
In an implementation manner, the number of instances for the cache application may be configured for the target edge device directly according to the number of instances obtained in step S102. Specifically, the platform device may send the number of the instances to the target edge device, and then the target edge device may record the number of the instances in its configuration file. When an instance needs to be created, the target edge device may create an instance according to the number of instances recorded in the configuration file. For example, if the number of instances is 5, the target edge device may create 5 instances of the caching application.
On the basis of the implementation manner, the platform device may configure other information besides the number of instances for the target edge device. Specifically, the configured information may further include at least one of the following information: caching startup parameters of the application, network configuration parameters and other configuration parameters and the like. According to the memory information contained in the first performance information, the operating environment information of the device system, the information indicating whether the system supports the container environment, the network information, the operating environment information of the cache application of the first application information, the starting condition and the like, the platform device can also configure the starting parameters, the network configuration parameters and the like of the cache application, so that when the cache application is started on the target edge device, the starting of the cache application can be completed according to the starting parameters, and the network connection of the cache application can also be configured according to the network configuration parameters.
As can be seen from the above, in the solution provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the data according to which the number of instances of the cache application to be created on the target edge device is determined includes the first performance information and the first application information, where the first performance information indicates the performance characteristic information of the target edge device, and the first application information represents the application information of the cache application itself and can represent the running characteristic information of the cache application to a certain extent.
Referring to fig. 2, a flow chart of another information configuring method is provided, and the method further includes steps S104 to S106 on the basis of fig. 1.
Step S104: second application information of each service application for providing the multimedia service to the presentation terminal is obtained.
The multimedia platform can provide a plurality of multimedia services for the display terminal used by the user, for example, a plurality of audio and video data transmission lines are provided for the display terminal, text data synchronized with video and live playback and other services are provided for the display terminal, the services are respectively realized through different software modules, and the software modules can be called as service applications.
In one implementation, the platform device obtains the pre-recorded second application information from a database. The second application information may include running environment information, starting conditions, network requirement information, deployment geographic location requirement information, declared resource information of the service application, and the like of the service application.
Step S105: and selecting a target service application to be deployed to the target edge device from each service application according to the obtained second application information, the first performance information and the first application information.
As can be seen from the foregoing description, there may be a plurality of service applications, and the execution environments required by the various service applications may be the same or different, for example, the execution environment required by some service applications is not provided by the edge device, and the execution environment required by some service applications is provided by the edge device, so that these service applications may also be deployed on the edge device. If the edge device is the target edge device, the cache applications that have been deployed or are to be deployed in the target edge need to be considered, and then it is determined whether the service applications can be deployed on the edge device.
In addition, the performance requirements of different service applications on the edge devices are different, so the performance requirements of the service applications on the edge devices need to be considered when deploying the service applications on the edge devices.
In view of the above, a target service application to be deployed on a target edge device may be selected.
In one implementation manner, the platform device matches second application information of each service application with first performance information of a target edge device, determines remaining device resource information of the target edge device according to total device resource information in the first performance information, device resource information required by cache application of the first application information, and device resource information required by each instance if the first performance information of the target edge device can be successfully matched with the second application information of the service application, and takes the service application as the target service application if it is determined that the remaining device resource can be used for deploying the service application based on the remaining device resource information and declaration resource information in the second application information.
The following describes a process of matching the second application information and the first performance information in the above implementation manner.
For example, the running environment information, the start condition information, the declaration resource information, and the like in the second application information may be matched with the CPU model, the CPU core number, the CPU architecture information, the memory information, the storage space information, the running environment information of the device system, information indicating whether the system supports the container environment, the network information, the installed application information on the current target edge device, and the like in the first performance information.
If so, judging whether the CPU model, the CPU core number, the CPU architecture information and the memory information of the target edge device meet the starting condition information of the second application information; judging whether the running environment information of the equipment system, the information indicating whether the system supports the container environment and the network information meet the running environment information in the second application information; and judging whether the available equipment resource information in the target edge equipment meets the declaration resource information in the second application information, and if the judgment results are all met, considering that the two are successfully matched.
Step S106: and configuring configuration information for the target service application for the target edge device, so that the target edge device deploys the target service application according to the configuration information.
The configuration information may include the start parameters of the service application, the network configuration parameters, other configuration parameters, and the like.
Specifically, the platform device may send the configuration information to the target edge device, and after receiving the configuration information, the target edge device may store the configuration information in a configuration file, and then the target edge device may deploy the target service application based on the information recorded in the configuration file. For example, an instance of the target service application is created from information recorded in the configuration file, and so on.
In one implementation, when configuring configuration information for the target service application for the target edge device, the platform device establishes a tag between the target service application and the target edge device. The label indicates that the target service application has an association relationship with the target edge device. If the configuration information of the target service application is updated, the platform device can directly find the target edge device associated with the target service application through the tag, and send the updated configuration information of the target service application to the target edge device.
As can be seen from the above, in the solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the service application may be deployed in the target edge device, and the service application deployed according to the second application information and the first performance information fully utilizes available device resources in the edge device, which are used for deploying other than the cache application, and can more fully utilize device resources in the target edge device.
In one embodiment of the present invention, in the case where the target edge device includes a service application, the above step S102 can be implemented by the following steps a-C.
Step A: and obtaining the declaration resource information of the target service application.
The declaration resource information of the target service application is to indicate the device resources occupied by the target service application for deployment and operation on the edge device.
Similar to the obtaining manner of step S104 described above, the difference is that the names of the second application information and the declaration resource information are different.
And B: and determining the available resource information of the target edge device according to the declaration resource information and the first performance information.
In one implementation, the platform device obtains total device resource information of the target edge device according to the CPU model, the CPU core number, the CPU architecture information, the memory information, and the like of the first performance information, and determines available resource information of the target edge device according to the total device resource information and the declaration resource information of the target service application. For example, the total device resources of the target edge device are subtracted by the system occupied resources, the declaration resources of the installed applications, and the declaration resources of the target service applications in the target edge device to obtain the available resource information of the target edge device.
On the basis of the implementation manner, the platform device may store the obtained available resource information record of the target edge device in a database in real time. If the platform device needs to deploy other service applications on the target edge device, the platform device does not need to repeatedly obtain the available resource information again, and can directly obtain the stored available resource information from the database.
The platform device may record and store the available resource information corresponding to each target edge device in the database according to the above implementation manner each time the application in the target edge device is updated. In this way, when the platform device needs to deploy the cache application or the service application on the target edge device, the available resource information of the target edge device can be directly read and obtained from the database.
And C: and determining the number of instances of the cache application to be created when the cache application is deployed on the target edge device according to the available resource information and the first application information.
Specifically, the platform device determines the number of instances of the cache application to be created according to the declaration resource information of the cache application of the first application information and the device resource information occupied by creating one instance. For example, the amount of the declaration resource applied to the cache is subtracted from the amount of the available resource of the target edge device to obtain the amount of the remaining available resource, the amount of the remaining available resource is divided by the amount of the device resource occupied by one instance, and after decimal points are removed, an integer is taken to obtain the number of the instances. The declaration resource information of the cache application is the device resource occupied by running the cache application.
On the basis of the above implementation manner, in an implementation manner, a preset device resource may be reserved in an available resource, and then the number of instances that can be created in the available resource from which the preset device resource is removed by the cache application is determined according to the implementation manner. Therefore, certain available resources are reserved for the equipment, and available resources capable of performing other operations are reserved for the target edge equipment.
In addition, since the method for determining the number of instances of the cache application that can be created in the available resource in the target edge device by the platform device is similar for each edge device, an instance determination plug-in may be manufactured according to the method, so as to simplify the calculation of the platform device.
As can be seen from the above, in the solution provided in the embodiment of the present invention, when the target edge device deploys the target service application, the platform device determines the available resource information of the target edge device, and according to the available resource information, increases the number of instances created by the cache application as much as possible, thereby ensuring normal operation of the service application, and increasing the number of instances of the cache application as much as possible, and increasing the device resource utilization rate of the edge device.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 provides a flowchart of a method for determining a target edge device, which includes steps S301-S303.
Step S301: geographical location information for each edge device is obtained.
In one implementation, the platform device sends a geographic location information obtaining request to the edge device, and the edge device sends geographic location information to the platform device after receiving the geographic location information obtaining request.
On the basis of the implementation mode, after receiving the geographical position information, the platform device stores the geographical position information records corresponding to each edge device into the database, and when the edge device needs to be selected again according to the geographical position information, the platform device can obtain the geographical position information which is recorded and stored in advance from the database without requesting the geographical position information from the edge device.
Step S302: and determining candidate edge equipment in the region where the cache application is to be deployed according to the obtained geographic position information.
Since the distance is a large factor affecting the network delay, the geographical location of the deployed cache application needs to be considered, and the candidate edge devices to be deployed are screened out through the geographical location information of the edge devices.
Specifically, the geographical location information identifying the preset area where the cache application is to be deployed may be selected from the obtained geographical location information, and then the edge device corresponding to the selected geographical location information is used as the candidate edge device.
Step S303: and selecting edge equipment supporting the creation of at least one instance of the cache application from the candidate edge equipment as target edge equipment according to the first application information of the cache application and the second performance information of the candidate edge equipment.
The caching application has certain requirements on the performance of the edge device, and therefore, the requirements of the caching application on the performance of the edge device need to be considered when the caching application is deployed on the edge device.
Specifically, the first application information of the cache application and the second performance information of the candidate edge device may be matched, and the edge device successfully matched may be used as the target edge device.
The second performance information is similar to the first performance information described above, except that the second performance information characterizes performance information of the candidate edge device and the first performance information characterizes performance information of the target edge device.
A process of matching the first application information and the second performance information is explained below.
For example, the running environment information and the start condition information in the first application information, the device resource information required by the cache application, and the device resource information required by each instance, etc. may be matched with the CPU model, the number of CPU cores, the CPU architecture information, the memory information, the storage space information, the running environment information, the information indicating whether the system supports the container environment, the network information, and the installed application information on the current target edge device, etc. in the second performance information.
If so, judging whether the CPU model, the CPU core number, the CPU architecture information and the memory information of the target edge device meet the starting condition information in the first application information; judging whether the operating environment information of the equipment system, the information indicating whether the system supports the container environment and the network information meet the operating environment information in the first application information; and judging whether the available equipment resource information in the target edge equipment can enable the target edge equipment to establish at least one instance of the cache application, and if the judgment results are all satisfied, considering that the two are successfully matched.
Therefore, the system, the hardware and the like of the selected target edge device are matched and are more suitable for running of the cache application, so that the platform device can more reasonably configure information for the cache application deployed on the target edge device, and unreasonable configuration is reduced. Likewise, the caching application is deployed with a suitable edge device, such that device resources are efficiently utilized.
In addition, the method for matching the first application information and the second performance information by the platform device is similar to that for each edge device, and a filter plug-in can be manufactured according to the matching method for filtering the edge devices which cannot deploy the cache application. The plug-in can be a Node Lables plug-in.
As can be seen from the above, the scheme provided by the embodiment of the present invention uses the target edge device selected by the geographic location information, and can deploy the cache application on the target edge device in the designated area by using the geographic location information, thereby reducing the network delay and improving the user experience.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the step S103 can be implemented by the following steps D-F.
Step D: and obtaining the download link of the cache application.
The download link may be an HTML (hypertext Markup Language) download link, or may be a magnetic link.
In one implementation, the platform device generates a download link of the cache application in advance, and stores the download link in the database, and the platform device can directly obtain the download link from the database.
In another implementation manner, the installation program of the cache application is stored in another server, and the platform device generates the download link according to the server where the installation program of the cache application is located.
Step E: and generating a package file containing the download link and the number of the instances.
And the platform equipment encodes and packages the download link and the number of the instances.
The package file includes the download link and the number of the instances, and may further include a start parameter of the cache application, a network configuration parameter, and other configuration parameters.
Step F: and sending the package file to the target edge device.
In one implementation, the platform device may send the packet file to the target edge device through HTTP. In addition, the platform device may also update the data of the target edge device in the database after updating the application in the target edge device.
In another implementation, the package file is sent to a long link server, so that the long link server sends the package file to the target edge device through a long link between the long link server and the target edge device.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, fig. 4 provides a schematic structural diagram of a multimedia service system, and the number of edge devices shown in fig. 4 may be multiple. The long link between the long link server and each edge device shown in fig. 4 may be an MQTT (Message Queuing telemeasuring Transport protocol) long link. The long link server defines Topic (Topic) for the platform equipment based on MQTT according to the serial number of the platform equipment, and each edge equipment can obtain the instruction of the platform equipment after subscribing the Topic. The platform device can send data to each edge device through the long link server and the MQTT long link. The platform device may also send the package file to the target edge device. For example, the long link server receives a platform command from a platform device, and sends the platform command to an edge device subscribing to Topic of the platform device. Therefore, the long chain connector keeps the platform equipment and the edge equipment connected, so that the instruction can be sent to the edge equipment in time, and the control capability of the platform equipment on the edge equipment can be improved.
As can be seen from the above, by sending the download link of the cache application to the target edge device, the data transmission amount between the platform device and the edge device is reduced, and the network pressure between the platform device and the edge device is reduced.
