The invention relates to a method and device for reducing extra back-to-source of disk cache content, and belongs to the technical field of
information processing.The method comprises the steps that a
client side sends a request to an
edge node, and when the
edge node has cache resources, the cache resources are hit, and data are returned to the
client side;
big data is analyzed according to the back-to-source log, and detailed information of a
client request is collected; after receiving the request, the
edge node checks data of the request, if the data is cached, the edge node extracts the data from the cache, and if the data is not cached, the step of
cache miss, namely MI SS, is entered; whether logic, request or MI SS is checked at the edge node, and the edge node forwards the request to the upper layer node to obtain the required content; and the edge node returns the data to the client no matter whether the data is cached and hit or is acquired from an
original data source through a request. According to the invention, time
delay can be effectively reduced, and accurate scheduling is realized.
