BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict.

1 is a schematic diagram of an instant messaging system for user information processing in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The instant messaging system for user information processing provided by the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a plurality of clients, at least one communication server, at least one global server, and at least two query servers. As shown in FIG. 1 , six clients A10, All, A20, A21, A30, and A31, a global server, three communication servers B1 to B3, and three query servers C1 to C3 are taken as an example for description. However, the present invention is not limited to clients, global servers, communication servers, and query servers. Number. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, the client A10~A11 is connected to the communication server B1, the client A20~A21 is connected to the communication server B2, and the client A30~A31 is connected to the communication server B3. However, the present invention also does not limit the number of clients to which each communication server is connected.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the client A10~A11 is connected to the query server C1 and the global server through the communication server B1, and the client A20~A21 is connected to the query server C2 and the global server through the communication server B2, and the client is connected. A30~A31 are connected to the query server C3 and the global server through the communication server B3. The communication server B1 is connected to the global server through the query server C1, the communication server B2 is connected to the global server through the query server C2, and the communication server B3 is connected to the global server through the query server C3. For example, the client in Shanghai is connected to the query server in Shanghai through the communication server in Shanghai. The client in Suzhou is connected to the query server in Suzhou through the communication server in Suzhou. The client in Beijing passes the communication server in Beijing and the query server in Beijing. Connected. Here, the number of query servers is the same as the number of communication servers. However, the present invention is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the number of communication servers may be one, and the communication server may be connected to multiple query servers.

In this embodiment, the clients A10~A11, A20-A21, and A30~A31 respectively transmit and store the user information to the global server through the communication servers B1~B3, and the global server synchronizes the user information to the query servers C1~C3. The user information is not limited to the user login information, and may also include user modification information, user update information, and the like. Specifically, clients in different regions share a global server by connecting to different query servers through a communication server. The corresponding query server can serve the client of the corresponding area and execute the query task sent by the client (for example, querying the user information). For example, the query server in Shanghai can provide user information inquiry service for Shanghai users, and the query server in Suzhou can provide user information inquiry service for Suzhou users. In this way, the distributed query server is responsible for the query tasks of clients in different regions, which improves the query efficiency and makes the communication more immediate and smooth.

In this embodiment, when the number of query tasks received by the query server from the plurality of clients exceeds a threshold, the communication server allocates the query tasks exceeding the threshold according to the task processing priority of the query server and the task receiving policy. The threshold value can be set, for example, according to the working efficiency of different query servers. In addition, the communication server sets the task processing priority of the query server according to the idle rate of the query server.

Specifically, the communication server may preset a comparison table of the idle rate and the task processing priority level. For example, when the task processing priority level is set to four levels, the idle rate and the task processing priority level The corresponding relationship is as follows: The query server with the idle rate of 80%~100% corresponds to the fourth level, the query server with the idle rate of 60%~80% corresponds to the third level, and the query server with the idle rate of 40%~60% corresponds to the second level. Level, the query server with an idle rate of 0% to 40% corresponds to the first level. Here, the query server having a higher idle rate has a higher priority level. However, the invention is not limited thereto. The level of the above task processing priority and its correspondence with the idle rate can be set according to actual needs.

Next, the three query servers C1 to C3 and the task processing priority level are set to level 4 as an example for specific description. As shown in Figure 1, the clients A10~A11, A20-A21, and A30~A31 send query tasks to the corresponding query servers C1~C3 through the communication servers B1~B3 respectively, and the communication servers B1-B3 monitor the query servers C1~C3 in real time. Working status. When the number of query tasks received by the query server C1 from the clients A10~A11 through the communication server B1 exceeds the threshold of the query server C1, the communication server B1 updates the rank of the task processing priorities according to the idle rates of the query servers C2 and C3. If the real-time idle rate of the query server C2 is 85%, and the real-time idle rate of the query server C3 is 70%, the communication server B1 can set the query server C2 to the fourth level according to the idle rate and the task processing priority level comparison table, and query the server. C3 is the third level, that is, the priority level of the query server C2 is higher than that of the query server C3. In this embodiment, according to the real-time idle rate of the query server, the task processing priority of the query server can be updated in real time. Thus, the communication server B1 first assigns the query task whose query server C1 exceeds its threshold to the query server C2 (i.e., the level 4 query server). The query server C2 receives a corresponding number of query tasks according to the task receiving policy. Here, the task receiving policy is a difference between the threshold of the query server and the current task amount.

If the query server C2 receives the query task assigned by the communication server B1, and the total number of query tasks processed by the server does not exceed the threshold set by the query server C2, the query server C2 is responsible for executing all the query tasks exceeding the threshold of the query server C1. If the total number of query tasks processed by the query server C2 exceeds the threshold set by the query server C2, the communication server B1 reallocates the query task exceeding the threshold of the query server C2 to the query server C3 (ie, the query server of the third level). However, the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, if the total number of query tasks processed by the query server C2 exceeds the threshold set by the query server C2, the query server C2 may re-allocate the query task exceeding the threshold of the query server C2 to the query server C3 (ie, level 3) Query the server). Next, it is determined whether the total number of query tasks after the query server C3 receives the query task exceeds the threshold of the query server C3. If it is exceeded, the communication server B1 or the query server C3 can call the query server of the next level in the priority sequence to execute the query task. When there is no next level of query service When the server is in progress, the pending query tasks are queued for processing. In this case, the communication server allocates the query task according to the combination of the idle rate and the priority, and fully utilizes the query server, thereby avoiding waste of resources and improving information query efficiency.

2 is a schematic diagram of a communication server in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the communication server includes a monitoring module 100 and a control module 101. The control module 101 is connected to the monitoring module 100. The monitoring module 100 monitors the number of query tasks received by the query servers C1~C3. The control module 101 updates the task processing priority according to the idle rate of the query servers C1 C C3, and allocates a query task exceeding the threshold according to the task processing priority and the task receiving policy.

Specifically, the user logs in to the client, and the client transmits and stores the user information to the global server, and the global server synchronizes the user information to the query servers C1 to C3. The query servers C1~C3 receive the query tasks from the client through the communication servers B1~B3, and the monitoring module 100 of the communication server monitors the number of query tasks received by the query servers C1~C3. At the same time, the monitoring module 100 transmits the number of query tasks received by the monitored query servers C1 to C3 to the control module 101. After receiving the above data, the control module 101 can determine whether the data exceeds the set threshold and calculate the idle rate of the query servers C1 to C3. When the number of query tasks received by the query server C1~C3 from the client exceeds the threshold set by the client, the control module 101 of the communication server allocates a query task exceeding the threshold according to the task processing priority of the query server and the task receiving policy. The process of assigning a query task by the communication server according to the task processing priority and the task receiving policy is the same as described above, and therefore will not be described here.

Figure 3 is a flow diagram showing an instant messaging method for user information processing in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, in step 101, the user logs in to the client, and the client transmits and stores the user information to the global server, and the global server synchronizes the user information to the query server. In step 102, the query server receives the query task from the client through the communication server. In step 103, when the number of query tasks received by the query server from the client exceeds a threshold, the communication server allocates a query task that exceeds the threshold according to the task processing priority of the query server and the task receiving policy. The specific process for the above steps is the same as described above, and therefore will not be described again.

In summary, the instant messaging system and method for processing user information according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention uses a distributed query server to be responsible for query tasks of clients in different regions, and the communication server will exceed the query task of the corresponding query server threshold. Assign to other query servers based on task processing priority and task receiving policies. In this way, the working efficiency of the query server and the global server can be improved, and the query efficiency of the user information can be improved. In addition, it has also effectively improved the instant messaging system. The throughput is improved, and communication efficiency is improved, making communication more immediate and smooth.
