Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of flow control of virtual number providers, and in particular to a method and device for implementing flow control of virtual number providers based on a random algorithm. Background Art

[0002] Telecom providers can provide users with communication services using real phone numbers as well as virtual numbers. A virtual number is a real number resource of the same length in one of the provider's number segments. Virtual numbers are used in different situations than real phone numbers. When using virtual numbers, no additional actual entity user identity module (such as SIM card, UIM card, etc.) is required. In many scenarios, users have the need to use virtual numbers to answer calls or receive text messages to avoid leaking their real phone numbers. For example, virtual number calls are applied to online car-hailing services where drivers and passengers are strangers to each other.

[0003] In the online ride-hailing service, drivers and passengers can talk to each other by binding virtual numbers, reducing the risk of leakage of their real information. When the driver and passenger need to talk, the online ride-hailing platform obtains virtual numbers supplied by the supplier for both the driver and the passenger. After the driver and passenger bind their virtual numbers respectively, they can talk to each other to further communicate the service status of the online ride-hailing order.

[0004] However, after research in this field, the inventor found that in the existing virtual number call method, when there are multiple virtual number suppliers, the traffic distribution between virtual numbers is unreasonable, which easily causes some suppliers to be overloaded while other suppliers are idle, which is not conducive to the reasonable allocation of resources. If the average distribution method is adopted, there will be a gap in the virtual number supply capacity between suppliers, which is also not reasonable. For this reason, there is an urgent need for a method suitable for online car-hailing platforms that can more reasonably control the traffic of virtual number suppliers. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the technical defect of unreasonable traffic allocation of virtual number providers mentioned above, the present invention provides a method and device for implementing virtual number provider traffic control based on a random algorithm.

[0053] Example 1

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, in a first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for implementing virtual number provider flow control based on a random algorithm, comprising the following steps:

[0055] Step S1: Acquire virtual number supplier data, wherein the virtual number supplier data includes supplier ID, supplier name, supplier load capacity and the size of the supplier's corresponding virtual number pool.

[0056] Step S2: Based on the load capacity of the virtual number provider and the size of the virtual number pool, the weight of each provider is set.

[0057] Specifically, the server analyzes the virtual number supplier data to obtain the supplier's load capacity and the size of the number pool. After mutual comparison, it generates a list of virtual number suppliers arranged in sequence, including the supplier's name and its corresponding load capacity, number pool size, and the stability provided by the virtual number. Based on the virtual number supplier list, weights are assigned to each virtual number supplier to obtain the weight corresponding to each virtual number supplier.

[0058] Step S3: Setting a natural number interval, and dividing the natural number interval into a number of associated intervals whose lengths match the supplier load capacity and the size of the virtual number pool based on the number of suppliers and the weight of the suppliers.

[0059] Specifically, the server pre-sets a natural number interval. In this embodiment, the preferred range of the natural number interval is 1-10000. The server obtains the number of suppliers from the supplier data, and divides the natural number interval equally based on the number of suppliers to form the number of intervals that match the supplier ID, and associates it with the virtual number supplier, so that each virtual number supplier has an associated interval. Based on the weight of the virtual number supplier, the length of its associated interval is adjusted in a targeted manner, while ensuring that the overall length of the natural number interval does not change. After the adjustment, an associated interval that matches the weight of each supplier is obtained.

[0060] Step S4: Obtain online car-hailing order data, perform a virtual number call calling and called number binding request instruction, and randomly generate a natural number from a natural number interval through a random algorithm.

[0061] Specifically, the server obtains the online car-hailing order data and the real numbers of the drivers and passengers in the online car-hailing service. When the driver and the passenger in the online car-hailing service need to make a call, the server issues a virtual number call calling and called number binding request instruction. The server randomly generates a natural number from a natural number interval through a random algorithm.

[0062] Step S5: Perform interval matching between the natural number and the associated interval, and select the supplier associated with the matched associated interval as the target supplier.

[0063] Specifically, after a natural number is generated, the natural number is matched with the associated intervals of each virtual number provider, and the virtual number provider corresponding to the associated interval matched by the natural number is the target provider. However, in some cases, the target provider may not be able to provide virtual number services normally. Therefore, as a preferred implementation, after the natural number is matched with the associated interval, the following is further included:

[0064] Determine whether the matching interval exists in the fault interval database;

[0065] If it does not exist, the supplier associated with the hit associated interval is selected as the target supplier;

[0066] If it exists, re-execute the steps of generating natural numbers and interval matching.

[0067] After selecting the supplier associated with the hit associated interval as the target supplier, the method further includes:

[0068] Determine whether the target supplier can provide services normally;

[0069] If possible, obtain a virtual number from the target provider;

[0070] If not, the associated interval corresponding to the target supplier is set to a faulty state and updated to the faulty interval database.

[0071] By setting up a fault interval database, faulty virtual number suppliers can be eliminated in a timely manner, thereby improving the reliability of virtual number services.

[0072] Step S6: Obtain a virtual number from the target supplier, and bind the virtual number to the driver and passenger ends respectively to establish a virtual number call between the driver and the passenger.

[0073] This embodiment preferably also includes:

[0074] Step S7: Obtain relevant data of the fault interval in the fault interval database, obtain the fault frequency and fault duration of the fault interval, shorten the length of the fault interval accordingly based on the fault frequency and fault duration, and correspondingly increase other stable associated intervals.

[0075] Step S8: sequentially obtain the fault intervals in the fault interval database, sequentially perform virtual number acquisition tests on the virtual number providers corresponding to the fault intervals, and remove the associated intervals corresponding to the providers whose virtual number provision services have been restored from the fault interval database.

[0076] By setting step S7 and step S8, the length of the associated interval of the virtual number provider is not fixed. When the stability of the virtual number provider changes, such as when a fault occurs and the virtual number service cannot be provided normally, the associated interval corresponding to the virtual number provider will temporarily enter the fault interval database. When the fault is repaired, it will be removed if it returns to normal. However, if the virtual number provider has service failures for a long time or frequently, it can be considered that the stability of the virtual number provider has been significantly reduced. The server will then specifically shorten the length of the associated interval of the virtual number provider. The more the stability is reduced, the more it will be shortened. For example, if the natural number interval is selected as 1-10000, while shortening the associated interval, the associated intervals of other suppliers whose stability has increased will be increased, and the total length of the natural number intervals will not change.

[0077] To summarize, the present invention performs random supplier selection through natural numbers generated by a random algorithm, thereby realizing random selection of virtual number suppliers. Based on the load capacity of the virtual number supplier and the size of the virtual number pool, the associated intervals of the virtual number supplier are set accordingly, thereby increasing the probability that the random number falls into the management interval of a virtual number supplier with a strong load capacity and a large virtual number pool size.

[0078] The present invention can realize automatic dynamic adjustment of management intervals by setting associated intervals of virtual number suppliers. When the stability of the virtual number supplier changes, the interval length will be adjusted in time to reduce the frequency of use of the virtual number supplier. The resources of the virtual number supplier can be reasonably allocated to control the flow of the virtual number supplier through a random algorithm to avoid the situation where the supplier is idle or overloaded. More stable virtual number suppliers will provide more services, thereby improving the success rate and efficiency of virtual number acquisition and improving the quality of virtual number calls.

[0079] For other steps of the method for implementing virtual number provider flow control based on a random algorithm described in this embodiment, refer to the prior art.
