Searching storage network integrated chip, network card and method for searching data in network card

Abstract

The invention discloses a searching storage network integrated chip, a network card and a method for searching data in the network card, and the chip is used in the network card and comprises a network control module which encodes and decodes a network data packet according to a network protocol; a storage control module which reads the data in parallel from the storage chip array of the network card; and a search module used for analyzing the search command obtained by decoding of the network control module, responding to the search command, sending a data parallel reading command to the storage control module, carrying out parallel search on the data read by the storage control module, and returning a search result to the network control module. According to the invention, network protocol processing can be completed in the network card, parallel data search is executed, reading and writing of data in the storage chip array are controlled, data migration among a CPU, an internal memory and the network card is reduced, high performance and low delay are realized, and the cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology, and more specifically refers to a method for searching and storing network integrated chips, network cards and searching data in the network cards. Background technique [0002] The storage server stores a large amount of monitoring data from surveillance cameras and pictures and video data of Internet sites and enterprises. For these data, there are a large number of picture and video search needs, and it is necessary to quickly find target images or video clips containing target images. [0003] In traditional enterprise back-end servers, users send data search requests from the front-end server to the back-end server through the network, and the back-end server reads the data from the storage array into the memory, uses CPU or GPU to search data such as images, and then sends the search data to the back-end server. The result is returned to the front-end server through the network. ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. Need to copy data between the storage array, memory and CPU or GPU, the interface between each other and additional data transmission limit the search performance

[0006] 2. With the emergence of high-speed storage media such as all-flash memory, the growth rate of storage performance is faster than the improvement of CPU or GPU processing power, and CPU or GPU cannot handle such high-speed images and other data search requirements

[0007] 3. The cost of discrete CPU or GPU, memory, network card, etc. is high
