A message processing method and device based on microservice architecture

Abstract

Provided are a packet processing method and apparatus based on a micro-service architecture, and a BRAS. The method may comprise: a Micro-BRAS container determining, after acquiring a packet to be processed, a service type corresponding to the packet, and determining a service processing container corresponding to the service type; and the Micro-BRAS container sending the packet to the service processing container, and the service processing container executing processing corresponding to the service type on the packet. By means of the technical solution of the present disclosure, a BRAS is divided, by means of container virtualization technology, into a Micro-BRAS container and a service processing container for performing capacity expansion or capacity reduction on the container. When a large number of user equipments are accessed, capacity expansion can be carried out on the container so as to meet service demands. When the number of accessed user equipments is reduced, capacity reduction can be carried out on the container so as to save storage and computing resources, and improve the resource utilization rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the communication field, in particular to a message processing method and device based on a microservice architecture. Background technique [0002] BRAS (Broadband Remote Access Server, Broadband Remote Access Server) is an access gateway oriented to broadband network applications, and mainly performs two functions. The first is the network bearer function: it is used to terminate the PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol Over Ethernet, point-to-point protocol carried by Ethernet) / IPoE (Internet Protocol Over Ethernet, Internet protocol carried by Ethernet) connection of user equipment and aggregate user traffic ; The second is the control realization function: it is used to realize functions such as authentication, billing, and address assignment. [0003] When a large number of user equipments are connected, a single BRAS may not be able to provide services for all user equipments, so the number of BRASs needs to be incr...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the above method, capacity expansion is performed by adding BRAS, and the cost of capacity expansion is relatively high. From the procurement of BRAS to the deployment of BRAS, the time period is lengthy, and service provisioning takes a long time.

When the number of connected user equipment decreases, deploying multiple BRASs will cause resource waste and low resource utilization
