Method, apparatus and system for transmitting files in instant messaging tool

Abstract

The invention discloses one method, device and its system on instant communication tool files, which comprises the following steps: send customer end gets file transmission optimization selection message by use of designed transmission type to send files to receive customer end; the transmission type is of servo transfer type; if the designed transmission file is of point to point type, then send customer end adopts point to point send file under receive part connection establishing; if not, then adopting servo transfer type.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer software and network communication, in particular to a method, device and system for transferring files in an instant communication tool. Background technique [0002] The instant messaging system has now become an important means for users to communicate through the network. With the increasing demand for business real-time communication in recent years, the enterprise instant messaging system is also developing rapidly, and is gradually becoming a common means of communication inside and outside the enterprise. [0003] Most of the current personal instant messaging tools either transfer files in a peer-to-peer manner or transfer files in a server forwarding manner, both of which have their own advantages and disadvantages. [0004] The advantage of using the server forwarding method to transfer files is that it is less affected by routers and firewalls, the transferred files can be stored on th...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The advantage of using the server forwarding method to transfer files is that it is less affected by routers and firewalls, and the transferred files can be stored on the file server, and can meet the needs of some enterprises' instant messaging systems for storing and retrieving files; the disadvantages are: The server load is heavy, the transmission speed is slow, affected by the server bandwidth, the file size needs to be limited, etc.

[0005] The advantage of using point-to-point file transfer is that the transfer speed is fast, not limited by the server bandwidth, and will not increase the server load; the disadvantage is that it is greatly affected by routers and firewalls, and it cannot meet the requirements of some enterprise instant messaging systems for the storage and transfer of files. Retrieval needs

[0006] The current instant messaging tools cannot flexibly choose the file transfer method according to the actual needs of enterprises or users, and give full play to the advantages of each file transfer method
