[0043] Before introducing the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the nouns and terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are explained first. The nouns and terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are subject to the following interpretations.

[0044] Cloud Technology: refers to a hosting technology that unifies hardware, software, network and other resources within a wide area network or local area network to achieve data computing, storage, processing and sharing.

[0045] Cloud computing: is a computing model that distributes computing tasks on a resource pool consisting of a large number of computers, so that various application systems can obtain computing power, storage space and information services as needed. The network that provides resources is called "cloud". The resources in the "cloud" are infinitely expandable in the eyes of users, and can be obtained at any time, used on demand, expanded at any time, and paid for by use.

[0046] As a provider of basic cloud computing capabilities, a cloud computing resource pool (referred to as a cloud platform, generally referred to as an IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) platform) will be established, and various types of virtual resources will be deployed in the resource pool for external customers to choose to use. The cloud computing resource pool mainly includes: computing devices (virtualized machines, including operating systems), storage devices, and network devices.

[0047] According to the logical function division, the PaaS (Platform as a Service) layer can be deployed on the IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) layer, and the SaaS (Software as a Service) layer can be deployed on the PaaS layer. SaaS can also be deployed directly on IaaS. PaaS is a platform for software operation, such as databases, web containers, etc. SaaS is a variety of business software, such as web portals, SMS mass senders, etc. Generally speaking, SaaS and PaaS are upper layers relative to IaaS.

[0048] In the related art, an edge gateway controller usually executes an edge gateway control instruction to control an edge gateway. Due to the performance limitation of the edge gateway controller itself, the processing speed of the edge gateway control instruction is slow and the throughput is low. Based on this, the embodiment of the present application proposes an edge gateway control method and device, which can improve the processing speed and throughput of the edge gateway control instruction.

[0049] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram of an implementation environment of an exemplary embodiment of the present application. The implementation environment includes a service control server 10 , an edge gateway 20 and an edge gateway control system, which includes an edge gateway controller 30 , a scheduler 40 and at least two actuators 50 .

[0050] It should be noted that the business control server 10 is a user-oriented server, which is used to provide users with a platform for participating in the control of the edge gateway 20. Users can perform business operations based on the platform provided by the business control server 10, and the business control server 10 generates business instructions for controlling the edge gateway 20 based on the user's business operations. Among them, the platform can be a Web (World Wide Web, Global Wide Area Network) web page, etc. The business control server 10 can be an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, CDN (Content Delivery Network, content distribution network), and big data and artificial intelligence platforms.

[0051] The edge gateway controller 30 is used to control the edge gateway 20, such as maintaining the long link of the edge gateway and managing the access rights of the edge gateway, etc. Among them, the edge gateway controller 30 can be an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, CDN, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms.

[0052] The scheduler 40 is deployed on a network node, which may be a physical machine or a virtual machine.

[0053] The executor 50 is deployed on a network node, which may be a physical machine or a virtual machine. At least two executors 50 may be deployed on the same network node or on different network nodes.

[0054] The scheduler 40 and the executor 50 may be deployed on the same network node or on different network nodes.

[0055] In one embodiment of the present application, a user can perform a business operation on a platform provided by a business control server 10. The business control server 10 generates a business instruction based on the user's business operation and sends the generated business instruction to an edge gateway controller 30. The edge gateway controller 30 parses the business instruction to obtain an instruction set including at least one edge gateway control instruction. The scheduler 40 obtains the instruction set from the edge gateway controller 30 and distributes the edge gateway control instruction contained in the instruction set to at least two executors 50. At least two executors 50 obtain the edge gateway control instruction sent by the scheduler 40, execute the obtained edge gateway control instruction to obtain an execution result instruction, and forward the execution result instruction to the corresponding edge gateway 20 through the edge gateway controller 30 to control the edge gateway 20 based on the execution result instruction. Among them, one edge gateway control instruction is distributed to one executor.

[0056] On the one hand, in the edge gateway control system, the edge gateway controller parses the edge gateway control instructions from the business instructions, and the actuator executes the edge gateway control instructions to control the edge gateway, thereby realizing the decoupling of the edge gateway controller and the execution of the edge gateway control instructions. This not only improves the processing speed and throughput of the edge gateway control instructions, but also allows the edge gateway controller for parsing business instructions and the actuator for executing the edge gateway control instructions to be developed separately, thereby improving the R&D componentization and R&D engineering performance, and enabling the system to have the ability to horizontally expand actuators, thereby improving the system's instruction throughput performance. On the other hand, by deploying at least two actuators in the system, each actuator can execute the edge gateway control instructions, thereby further improving the processing speed and throughput of the edge gateway control instructions, as well as the system's instruction throughput performance.

[0057] In another exemplary embodiment, the edge gateway controller 30 may include a first access module 31 , a service instruction parsing module 32 , and a second access module 33 .

[0058] The first access module 31 is used to provide an interface for business interaction with the business control server 10 and manage the link with the business control server 10. The interface can be built based on Http (HyperText Transfer Protocol), TRPC (Transaction Remote Procedure Call), etc. Through the interface provided by the first access module 31, the business instructions sent by the business control server 10 can be received.

[0059] The service instruction parsing module 32 is used to obtain service instructions from the first access module 31 , parse the obtained service instructions, obtain an instruction set including at least one edge gateway control instruction, and send the instruction set to the scheduler 40 .

[0060] The second access module 33 is used to provide an interface for interacting with the edge gateway 20, maintain a long link with the edge gateway 20, and manage the access rights of the edge gateway 20. The link protocols between the second access module 33 and the edge gateway 20 include but are not limited to GRPC (google Remote Procedure Call), MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport), WebSocket, etc. It should be noted that GRPC is a high-performance open source software framework released by Google based on the HTTP 2.0 transport layer protocol, which provides a method for configuring and managing network devices that supports multiple programming languages; WebSocket is a protocol for full-duplex communication on a single TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) connection.

[0061] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of an implementation environment combined with a message queue technology shown in an exemplary embodiment of the present application. In one embodiment of the present application, the scheduler 40 obtains an instruction set from the edge gateway controller 30, and stores the obtained instruction set in the database 60. The scheduler 40 obtains the edge gateway control instruction contained in the instruction set from the database 60, and sends the obtained edge gateway control instruction to the message queue 70. At least two executors 50 obtain the edge gateway control instruction from the message queue 70. Thereby, the scheduler 40 and the executor 50 are decoupled, and the processing speed of the edge gateway control instruction is improved.

[0062] The network node corresponding to the database 60 may be the same as or different from the network node corresponding to the executor 50 or the scheduler 40 ; the network node corresponding to the message queue 70 may be the same as or different from the network node corresponding to the executor 50 or the scheduler 40 .

[0063] In another exemplary embodiment, the database 60 also stores metadata of each edge gateway control instruction in the instruction set. The scheduler 40 can obtain the edge gateway control instructions and the metadata of the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set from the database 60, and send the obtained edge gateway control instructions and their metadata to the message queue 70. The executor 50 obtains the edge gateway control instructions and their metadata from the message queue 70, and executes the edge gateway control instructions based on the metadata of the edge gateway control instructions.

[0064] Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment, the number of the service control server 10, the edge gateway 20, the edge gateway controller 30 and the scheduler 40 is only exemplary. According to actual needs, there may be any number of service control servers 10, the edge gateway 20, the edge gateway controller 30 and the scheduler 40.

[0065] Figure 3 is a flow chart of an edge gateway control method according to an exemplary embodiment. The method can be applied to Figure 1 The implementation environment shown is specifically executed by the scheduler 40 in the edge gateway control system, and the edge gateway control system includes Figure 1 The edge gateway controller 30, the scheduler 40 and at least two executors 50 in the environment of the embodiment shown. Among them, the at least two executors 50 can correspond to different network nodes (that is, only one executor can be deployed on a network node), or some of the at least two executors correspond to the same network node, and some executors correspond to different network nodes (that is, one network node can be deployed with one or more executors), or the at least two executors 50 correspond to the same network node. The network node where the executor is deployed can be a virtual machine or a physical machine.

[0066] like Figure 3 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the edge gateway control method may include steps S110 to S120, which are described in detail as follows:

[0067] Step S110, obtaining a set of instructions from the edge gateway controller.

[0068] The instruction set includes at least one edge gateway control instruction, and the at least one edge gateway control instruction is parsed by the edge gateway controller based on the service instruction from the service control server.

[0069] It should be noted that the database is used to store instruction sets, and business instructions are used to control edge gateways. The business control server is a user-oriented server that provides users with a platform for participating in edge gateway control. If users need to control edge gateways, they can perform business operations on the platform. The business control server generates business instructions for controlling edge gateways based on user business operations, and sends the generated business instructions to the edge gateway controller. The edge gateway control server obtains business instructions from the business control server, parses the obtained business instructions to obtain at least one edge gateway control instruction, and uses the obtained at least one edge gateway control instruction as an instruction set. The scheduler obtains an instruction set from the edge gateway controller.

[0070] The specific method in which the scheduler obtains the instruction set from the edge gateway controller can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, in an exemplary embodiment, after obtaining the instruction set, the edge gateway controller can send the instruction set to the scheduler, and the scheduler receives the instruction set sent by the edge gateway controller to obtain the instruction set from the edge gateway controller. In another exemplary embodiment, the scheduler can access the edge gateway controller periodically or in real time to obtain the instruction set from the edge gateway controller.

[0071] Step S120, distribute the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set to at least two executors, so that each executor executes the acquired edge gateway control instructions, and forwards the obtained execution result instructions to the corresponding edge gateway through the edge gateway controller, and controls the edge gateway based on the execution result instructions.

[0072] After the scheduler obtains the instruction set from the edge gateway controller, it distributes the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set to at least two actuators in the edge gateway control system. Each actuator executes the obtained edge gateway control instructions, and forwards the obtained execution result instructions to the corresponding edge gateway through the edge gateway controller, and controls the edge gateway based on the execution result instructions.

[0073] It should be noted that, in order to avoid repeated execution, an edge gateway control instruction can be distributed to one executor.

[0074] In the technical solution provided in the embodiments of the present application, on the one hand, in the edge gateway control system, the edge gateway controller parses the edge gateway control instructions from the business instructions, and the actuator executes the edge gateway control instructions to control the edge gateway, thereby realizing the decoupling of the edge gateway controller and the execution of the edge gateway control instructions, which not only improves the processing speed and throughput of the edge gateway control instructions, but also enables the system to have the ability to horizontally expand the actuators, thereby improving the instruction throughput performance of the system; on the other hand, by deploying at least two actuators in the system, each actuator can execute the edge gateway control instructions, thereby further improving the processing speed and throughput of the edge gateway control instructions, as well as the instruction throughput performance of the system.

[0075] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 yes Figure 3 The step S120 in the embodiment shown is a flow chart in an exemplary embodiment. Figure 4 As shown, the process of distributing the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set to at least two actuators may include steps S121 to S122, which are described in detail as follows:

[0076] Step S121, storing the instruction set in a database.

[0077] The database is used to store the instruction set.

[0078] In order to achieve decoupling of the scheduler and the executor, the scheduler obtains the instruction set from the edge gateway controller and stores the obtained instruction set in the database.

[0079] Step S122, obtaining the edge gateway control instruction contained in the instruction set from the database, and sending the obtained edge gateway control instruction to the message queue, so that at least two executors obtain the edge gateway control instruction from the message queue.

[0080] After the scheduler stores the instruction set in the database, it can obtain the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set from the database, and send the obtained edge gateway control instructions to the message queue, so that at least two executors can obtain the edge gateway control instructions from the message queue, thereby decoupling the scheduler and the executor, which not only improves the processing speed of the edge gateway control instructions, but also facilitates the parallel expansion of the executors.

[0081] In an exemplary embodiment, the instruction set also includes an execution order between edge gateway control instructions, and the execution order between edge gateway control instructions is obtained by the edge gateway controller based on the business instruction parsing.

[0082] It should be noted that there is usually an association relationship between the edge gateway control instructions contained in a business instruction. Therefore, the edge gateway controller can parse the business instruction, parse out at least one edge gateway control instruction and the association relationship between the edge gateway control instructions from the business instruction, determine the execution order between the edge gateway control instructions based on the association relationship, and use the parsed at least one edge gateway control instruction and the execution order as an instruction set, that is, the instruction set contains not only at least one edge gateway control instruction, but also the execution order between the edge gateway control instructions. For example, if three edge gateway control instructions are parsed from the business instruction, namely A1-A3, and the execution order of A1-A3 is, after A1 is executed, A2 is executed, after A2 is executed, A3 is executed, then the instruction set includes A1-A3, and the execution order of A1-A3.

[0083] Under the condition that the instruction set also contains the execution order of the edge gateway control instruction, the process of obtaining the edge gateway control instruction contained in the instruction set from the database and sending the obtained edge gateway control instruction to the message queue may include steps S210 to S220, which are described in detail as follows:

[0084] Step S210: access a database to obtain a set of instructions stored in the database.

[0085] The scheduler may access the database periodically to obtain the instruction set stored in the database, or the scheduler may access the database in real time to obtain the instruction set stored in the database.

[0086] Step S220, according to the execution order of the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set, the edge gateway control instructions are sequentially obtained from the instruction set, and the obtained edge gateway control instructions are sent to the message queue.

[0087] After the scheduler obtains the instruction set from the database, it first obtains the edge gateway control instruction with the highest execution order from the instruction set according to the execution order between the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set, and sends the obtained edge gateway control instruction to the message queue, and then obtains the edge gateway control instruction with the second highest execution order from the instruction set, and sends the obtained edge gateway control instruction to the message queue, until all edge gateway control instructions in the instruction set are sent, thereby ensuring that the edge gateway control instructions are executed in sequence.

[0088] In an exemplary embodiment, the database contains the execution status information of the edge gateway control instruction in the instruction set. It should be noted that from the edge gateway control instruction being stored in the database to the edge gateway control instruction being executed by the executor, it includes the following execution status: not sent to the message queue, sent to the message queue but not acquired by the executor, acquired by the executor but not executed, executing, and completed. The execution status information is used to characterize the execution status of the edge gateway control instruction, such as whether it is sent to the message queue, whether it is executed, and whether it is completed.

[0089] Under the condition that the database contains the execution status information of the edge gateway control instruction in the instruction set, the process of sequentially obtaining the edge gateway control instruction from the instruction set according to the execution order between the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set, and sending the obtained edge gateway control instruction to the message queue may include steps S221 to S222, which are described in detail as follows:

[0090] Step S221, determining a target edge gateway control instruction from an instruction set according to the execution status information, wherein the execution status of the target edge gateway control instruction includes the earliest execution order, not yet executed, and not sent to a message queue.

[0091] In order to ensure that the edge gateway control instruction with the earlier execution order is executed first and the edge gateway control instruction with the later execution order is executed later, the scheduler determines the target edge gateway control instruction from the instruction set stored in the database according to the execution status information contained in the database. Among them, the execution status of the target edge gateway control instruction includes the earliest execution order, not yet executed, and not sent to the message queue. In other words, the target edge gateway control instruction is the edge gateway control instruction with the earliest execution order among the edge gateway control instructions in the instruction set that have not been executed and have not been sent to the message queue.

[0092] For example, as shown in Table 1, the database stores instruction set B, instruction set B represents edge gateway control instructions B1-B5, and the database also stores the execution order and execution status of edge gateway control instructions B1-B5. According to Table 1, among the edge gateway control instructions B1-B5, the edge gateway control instructions that have not been sent to the message queue and have not been executed include edge gateway control instructions B4 and edge gateway control instructions B5, wherein the execution order of B4 is earlier than that of B5, therefore, B4 is the target edge gateway control instruction.

[0093]

[0094] Table 1

[0095] Step S222: If it is determined that the edge gateway control instruction whose execution order is before the target edge gateway control instruction is in the execution completed state, the target edge gateway control instruction is sent to the message queue.

[0096] In order to ensure that the edge gateway control instructions with an earlier execution order are executed first, and the edge gateway control instructions with a later execution order are executed later, after determining the target edge gateway control instruction, the scheduler further determines whether the edge gateway control instruction with an execution order before the target edge gateway control instruction is in the execution completed state. If the edge gateway control instruction with an execution order before the target edge gateway control instruction is in the execution completed state, the target edge gateway control instruction is sent to the message queue, thereby ensuring that each edge gateway control instruction is executed in the execution order to avoid execution errors. Continuing with the previous example, the edge gateway control instructions B1-B3 with an execution order before the target edge gateway control instruction B4 are in the execution completed state, so B4 is sent to the message queue.

[0097] Among them, in order to reduce resource occupancy and reduce data processing volume, the scheduler can only determine whether the edge gateway control instruction whose execution order is before the target edge gateway control instruction is in the execution completed state. If the edge gateway control instruction whose execution order is before the target edge gateway control instruction is in the execution completed state, the target edge gateway control instruction is sent to the message queue. Alternatively, the scheduler can determine whether all edge gateway control instructions whose execution order is before the target edge gateway control instruction are in the execution completed state. If all edge gateway control instructions whose execution order is before the target edge gateway control instruction are in the execution completed state, the target edge gateway control instruction is sent to the message queue.

[0098] It should also be mentioned that, in an exemplary embodiment, the edge gateway control method on the scheduler side may further include steps S130 to S140, which are described in detail as follows:

[0099] Step S130, monitoring the working status of at least two actuators.

[0100] In order to avoid the situation where the edge gateway control instructions are not executed due to actuator failure, the scheduler monitors the working status of each actuator in the edge gateway control system.

[0101] Step S140: If it is determined according to the monitored working status that a first actuator among the at least two actuators fails, the edge gateway control instruction that has not been executed in the first actuator is resent to an actuator that has not failed among the at least two actuators.

[0102] If the scheduler detects that the first actuator in the edge gateway control system has a fault, the edge gateway control instructions that have not been executed in the first actuator will be resent to the actuators that have not failed in the edge gateway control system, so that the actuators that have not failed can execute the edge gateway controllers that have not been executed in the faulty actuator to ensure that the edge gateway control instructions are executed.

[0103] In an exemplary embodiment, if the scheduler determines, based on the monitored working state, that the first actuator of at least two actuators fails to execute the acquired edge gateway control instruction within a preset time period after acquiring the edge gateway control instruction, then it is determined that the first actuator is faulty. It should be noted that the preset time period is a time period used to determine whether the actuator is faulty, which can be flexibly set according to actual needs, for example, to 1 second, 0.5 seconds, etc. In one example, assuming that the preset time period is 2 seconds, if a certain actuator fails to execute the edge gateway control instruction within 2 seconds after acquiring the edge gateway control instruction, then it is determined that the actuator is faulty.

[0104] Among them, the database may contain the time when the edge gateway control instruction is obtained by the executor and the time when the execution is completed. The scheduler can access the database and determine whether the executor has a fault based on the time when each edge gateway control instruction in the database is obtained by the executor and the time when the execution is completed.

[0105] In an exemplary embodiment, under the condition that the scheduler distributes the edge gateway control instruction to at least two actuators through a message queue, if it is determined that the first actuator of the at least two actuators has a fault according to the monitored working status, the process of resending the edge gateway control instruction that has not been executed in the first actuator to the actuator that has not failed in the at least two actuators may include: if it is detected that the first actuator has a fault, resending the edge gateway control instruction that has not been executed in the first actuator to the message queue. In this way, other schedulers that have not failed can obtain the edge gateway control instruction that has not been executed in the first actuator from the message queue, and execute the obtained edge gateway control instruction, so as to ensure that the edge gateway control instruction is executed.

[0106] Figure 5 is a flow chart of an edge gateway control method according to an exemplary embodiment. The method can be applied to Figure 1 The implementation environment shown is specifically executed by the actuator 50 in the edge gateway control system, that is, each actuator 50 can execute the method independently, and the edge gateway control system includes Figure 1The edge gateway controller 30, the scheduler 40 and at least two executors 50 in the environment of the embodiment shown. Among them, the at least two executors 50 can correspond to different network nodes (that is, only one executor can be deployed on a network node), or some of the at least two executors correspond to the same network node, and some executors correspond to different network nodes (that is, one network node can be deployed with one or more executors), or the at least two executors 50 correspond to the same network node. The network node where the executor is deployed can be a virtual machine or a physical machine.

[0107] like Figure 5 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the edge gateway control method may include steps S310 to S330, which are described in detail as follows:

[0108] Step S310: Obtain the edge gateway control instruction contained in the instruction set distributed by the scheduler.

[0109] The instruction set includes at least one edge gateway control instruction, and the at least one edge gateway control instruction is parsed by the edge gateway controller based on the business instruction from the business control server; and one edge gateway control instruction is distributed to one executor.

[0110] It should be noted that the database is used to store instruction sets, and business instructions are used to control edge gateways. The business control server is a user-oriented server that provides users with a platform for participating in edge gateway control. If users need to control edge gateways, they can perform business operations on the platform. The business control server generates business instructions for controlling edge gateways based on user business operations, and sends the generated business instructions to the edge gateway controller. The edge gateway control server obtains business instructions from the business control server, parses the obtained business instructions to obtain at least one edge gateway control instruction, and uses the obtained at least one edge gateway control instruction as an instruction set. The scheduler obtains an instruction set from the edge gateway controller, and distributes the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set to at least two executors, wherein one edge gateway control instruction is distributed to one executor. The executor obtains the edge gateway control instruction distributed by the scheduler.

[0111] Step S320, execute the acquired edge gateway control instruction to obtain an execution result instruction.

[0112] The executor executes the acquired edge gateway control instruction and obtains the execution result instruction.

[0113] Step S330, sending the execution result instruction to the edge gateway controller, so that the edge gateway controller forwards the execution result instruction to the corresponding edge gateway, and controls the edge gateway based on the execution result instruction.

[0114] The executor sends the execution result instruction to the edge gateway controller, and the edge gateway controller forwards the execution result instruction to the corresponding edge gateway, so that the edge gateway executes the execution result instruction and realizes the control of the edge gateway. In this way, the executor does not need to establish a link with the edge gateway separately, thereby saving network resources.

[0115] In an exemplary embodiment, when the instruction set is stored in the database by the scheduler, and the edge gateway control instruction contained in the instruction set is obtained from the database by the scheduler and sent to the message queue, Figure 5 Step S310 in the illustrated embodiment includes: extracting edge gateway control instructions from the scheduler from the message queue.

[0116] The executor may extract the edge gateway control instruction from the message queue at a fixed time, or the executor may extract the edge gateway control instruction from the message queue after executing an edge gateway control instruction.

[0117] In another embodiment, under the condition that the database contains the execution status information of the edge gateway control instruction in the instruction set, after the edge gateway control instruction is executed, the executor may update the execution status information corresponding to the executed edge gateway control instruction in the database.

[0118] In another embodiment, after extracting the edge gateway control instruction from the scheduler from the message queue, the executor may update the execution status information of the extracted edge gateway control instruction in the database, so that the execution status information in the database accurately reflects the execution status of each edge gateway control instruction, thereby avoiding the situation where the scheduler repeatedly sends the edge gateway control instruction to the message queue.

[0119] See also Figure 6 , Figure 6 is based on Figure 2 The interactive flow chart of the application scenario in an exemplary embodiment is shown. Figure 6 As shown, it mainly includes the following steps:

[0120] Step S401: A user performs a service operation on a platform provided by a service control server.

[0121] The service control server provides a platform for users to perform service operations. Users perform service operations on the platform to control the edge gateway.

[0122] Step S402: The service control server generates a service instruction based on the service operation.

[0123] After receiving the user's service operation, the service control server generates a service instruction based on the service operation.

[0124] Step S403: The service control server sends the service instruction to the edge gateway controller.

[0125] Step S404: the edge gateway controller parses the service instruction to obtain an instruction set including at least one edge gateway control instruction.

[0126] After receiving the service instruction, the edge gateway controller parses at least one edge gateway control instruction from the service instruction to obtain an instruction set.

[0127] Step S405: The edge gateway controller sends the instruction set to the scheduler.

[0128] Step S406: the scheduler stores the instruction set in the database.

[0129] Step S407: The scheduler obtains the edge gateway control instruction contained in the instruction set from the database.

[0130] Step S408: The scheduler sends the acquired edge gateway control instruction to the message queue.

[0131] Step S409: The executor obtains the edge gateway control instruction from the message queue.

[0132] Step S410: The executor executes the acquired edge gateway control instruction to obtain an execution result instruction.

[0133] In step S411, the executor sends the execution result instruction to the edge gateway controller.

[0134] Step S412: The edge gateway controller forwards the execution result instruction to the corresponding edge gateway.

[0135] The edge gateway controller sends the execution result instruction to the corresponding edge gateway to control the edge gateway.

[0136] It should be noted that the detailed processes involved in the above steps S401 to S412 have been described in the aforementioned embodiments, and therefore will not be repeated here.

[0137] In this embodiment, the edge gateway controller receives a business instruction through the business control server, parses at least one edge gateway control instruction from the business instruction to obtain an instruction set, and then sends the instruction set to the scheduler, which distributes the edge gateway control instructions in the instruction set to at least two executors in the system so that the executors execute the edge gateway control instructions, thereby achieving decoupling of the edge gateway controller and the execution of the edge gateway control instructions, which not only improves the processing speed and throughput of the edge gateway control instructions, but also allows the edge gateway controller for parsing business instructions and the executor for executing the edge gateway control instructions to be developed separately, thereby improving the R&D componentization and R&D engineering performance, and enabling the system to have the ability to horizontally expand executors, thereby improving the system's instruction throughput performance; and, the scheduler sends the edge gateway control instructions to the executor through a message queue, thereby achieving decoupling of the scheduler and the executor, and further improving the processing speed and throughput of the edge gateway control instructions.

[0138] An edge gateway control system provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application includes an edge gateway controller, a scheduler and at least two actuators, wherein:

[0139] The edge gateway controller obtains the service instruction from the service control server, and parses the obtained service instruction to obtain an instruction set including at least one edge gateway control instruction.

[0140] The scheduler obtains an instruction set from an edge gateway controller, and distributes the edge gateway control instructions contained in the instruction set to at least two executors; wherein one edge gateway control instruction is distributed to one executor.

[0141] At least two executors respectively obtain the edge gateway control instructions distributed by the scheduler, execute the obtained edge gateway control instructions, obtain the execution result instructions, and send the execution result instructions to the edge gateway controller, so that the edge gateway controller forwards the execution result instructions to the corresponding edge gateway, and controls the edge gateway based on the execution result instructions.

[0142] The at least two actuators may correspond to the same network node or to different network nodes.
