Instant messaging method, device and system

Abstract

The invention discloses an instant messaging method, a device and a system, which relate to the technical field of the internet. The instant messaging method provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the following steps that: a hyper text transfer protocol server receives an asynchronous request transmitted by a client side; according to the asynchronous request, persistent link is built between the hyper text transfer protocol server and the client side; the hyper text transfer protocol server forwards the asynchronous request to a socket server; the socket server carries out data processing to the asynchronous request; and when the socket server finishes data processing, the hyper text transfer protocol server receives a response message returned from the socket server and forwards the response message to a client side corresponding to the hyper text transfer protocol server. According to the embodiment disclosed by the invention, information interaction instantaneity can be improved, background server resource waste is reduced, the webpage loading rate is quickened, and the compatibility and the user experience with other browsers are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to an instant messaging method, device and system. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of Internet technology, chatting online has become one of the important ways for people to communicate. Correspondingly, various instant messaging tools are also applied. In particular, in order to break through the port restrictions of the LAN firewall, a web-based instant messaging tool appeared on the Internet. The instant messaging tool of the webpage version does not need to install a client, and can pass through the firewall through HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol, Hypertext Transfer Protocol), and directly realize online chatting on the browser. At present, the core system of the more common web version instant messaging tools in China is usually based on UDP (User Datagram Protocol, User Datagram Protocol) plus thread pool structure, using the Internet's ...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the prior art, the client uses the js timer method to request the background server for data interaction, which makes the information interaction delay in the chat process relatively large and unresponsive, resulting in an increase in the repeated sending of information, thereby causing a waste of background server resources. At the same time, it will also reduce the loading speed of the webpage, and the compatibility with other browsers is poor, which affects the user experience
