[0049] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0050] The present application provides a gateway supervision method, which will be described in detail through the following embodiments.

[0051] See also Figure 1 , shows a schematic diagram of the process of the gateway supervision method provided in an embodiment of the present application, and the gateway supervision method may include:

[0052] Step S101, obtain life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data acquisition process of the data acquisition gateway, and manage the obtained data; and obtain life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process of the data acquisition gateway, and manage the obtained data.

[0053] Among them, the data collection process refers to the process in which the data collection gateway collects data from the southbound device. The first log data includes log data related to the state change of the data collection process and log data related to the collected data. The platform communication process refers to the process in which the data collection gateway reports the data collected from the southbound device to the northbound. The second log data includes log data related to the state change of the platform communication process and log data related to the northbound reported data. The life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data collection process, as well as the life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process are used to determine the state of the data collection gateway.

[0054] In this embodiment, the status of the process includes but is not limited to the following statuses: running, stopped (eg, abnormally stopped), closed, and started.

[0055] Specifically, the data acquisition gateway can collect data from the southbound device in the southbound direction, and can upload the collected data to the cloud device in the northbound direction. Here, the data acquisition gateway collects data in the southbound direction through the data acquisition process, and uploads data to the cloud device in the northbound direction through the platform communication process. Therefore, by supervising the data related to the data acquisition process and the platform communication process, the gateway status can be determined based on the supervised data. Optionally, the gateway status can be, for example: ready state, restart state, abnormal state, etc.

[0056] The "supervision" in the above-mentioned "regulation" specifically refers to: monitoring the data related to the data collection process and the platform communication process to obtain the data related to the data collection process and the platform communication process; the "management" specifically refers to: managing the data related to the acquired data collection process and the platform communication process.

[0057] In an optional embodiment, the data related to the data collection process supervised in this step includes at least the following data: life cycle data related to the data collection process, resource usage data and first log data.

[0058] The life cycle data here refers to data reflecting the life cycle of the data collection process. Optionally, the life cycle data related to the data collection process includes one or more of the following data: the state of the data collection process, the change time of the process state, the process identifier, the process exit code and exit message. The exit code of the process refers to the identification code that characterizes the exit of the data collection process, and the exit message refers to a message that describes the exit of the data collection process in words. For example, if the data collection process exits normally, the exit code is 1, and the exit message is "the data collection process exits normally". If the data collection process exits abnormally, the exit code (also called error code) is 0, and the exit message is "the data collection process exits abnormally".

[0059] Of course, the above exit codes and exit messages are only examples. In actual applications, the exit situation may include a variety of situations (for example, there are more than 10 exit situations that can be implemented currently), and this embodiment does not make specific limitations.

[0060] Optionally, when the life cycle data related to the data collection process includes the change time of the process status, each life cycle data can be displayed in order from recent to ancient change time; optionally, the life cycle data related to the data collection process can also be stored in a list format for user viewing.

[0061] The resource usage data related to the above-mentioned data collection process refers to data reflecting the resources occupied by the data collection process. Optionally, the resource usage data related to the data collection process includes one or more of the following data: CPU usage data, memory usage data and disk usage data of the data collection process.

[0062] The first log data includes log data related to the state change of the data collection process and log data related to the collected data. Specifically, each time the state of the data collection process changes, a related log data is generated, and each time the data collection process collects data, a log data related to the collected data can also be generated, that is, the first log data includes multiple log data.

[0063] Optionally, each of the multiple log data included in the first log data consists of data generation time, data level and data title. Here, the data level of a log data reflects the alarm level of the log data, wherein the data level of the log data generated when the data collection process is abnormal is higher than the data level of the log data generated when the data collection process is normal, and the data level of the log data generated when the collected data is abnormal is higher than the data level of the log data generated when the data is collected normally; the data title of a log data is a brief introduction to the log data.

[0064] Optionally, when the first log data includes multiple log data, each log data can be displayed in order from recent to oldest data generation time; optionally, the first log data related to the data collection process can also be stored in a list format for user viewing.

[0065] Similar to the data related to the data collection process, in another optional embodiment, the data related to the platform communication process supervised in this step includes at least the following data: life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process.

[0066] The life cycle data here refers to data reflecting the life cycle of the platform communication process. Optionally, the life cycle data related to the platform communication process includes one or more of the following data: the status of the platform communication process, the change time of the process status, the process identifier, the process exit code and exit message. The exit code of the process refers to the identifier code representing the exit status of the platform communication process, and the exit message refers to a message that describes the exit status of the platform communication process in words.

[0067] In actual applications, the exit situations of the platform communication may include multiple situations (for example, there are more than 10 exit situations that can be realized currently), which are not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0068] Optionally, when the lifecycle data related to the platform communication process includes the change time of the process status, each lifecycle data can be displayed in order of change time from recent to ancient; optionally, the lifecycle data related to the platform communication process can also be stored in a list format for user viewing.

[0069] The resource usage data related to the above-mentioned platform communication process refers to data reflecting the resources occupied by the platform communication process. Optionally, the resource usage data related to the platform communication process includes one or more of the following data: CPU usage data, memory usage data and disk usage data of the platform communication process.

[0070] The second log data includes log data related to the status change of the platform communication process and log data related to the northbound reporting data. Specifically, each time the status of the platform communication process changes, a related log data is generated, and each time the platform communication process reports data, a log data related to the reported data can also be generated, that is, the second log data includes multiple log data.

[0071] Optionally, each of the multiple log data included in the second log data consists of data generation time, data level and data title. For the introduction of data level and data title, please refer to the introduction in the first log data above, which will not be repeated here.

[0072] Optionally, when the second log data includes multiple log data, each log data can be displayed in order from recent to ancient data generation time; optionally, the second log data related to the platform communication process can also be stored in a list format for user viewing.

[0073] It should be noted that the specific data included in the lifecycle data, log data (i.e., the first log data and the second log data) and resource usage data related to the above two processes are only examples. In addition, other specific data may be included, and this application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0074] In summary, the gateway supervision method provided by the present application can obtain the life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data collection process of the data collection gateway, and manage the obtained data, and can obtain the life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process of the data collection gateway, and manage the obtained data. The life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data collection process obtained by the present application, as well as the life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process are used to determine the status of the data collection gateway. Since the data obtained by the present application is more readable and easy to use, the status of the data collection gateway can be easily determined based on the data obtained by the present application.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present application, considering that in some scenarios it may not be necessary to supervise the process-related data of gateway data collection (i.e., collecting data from southbound devices) and data uploading (i.e., reporting data to cloud devices), for this purpose, this embodiment can set start-stop switches for the data collection process and the platform communication process respectively, so that the user can turn on or off the start-stop switch corresponding to the data collection process and / or the platform communication process according to actual needs, so as to obtain the data related to the corresponding process when it is turned on, and no longer obtain the data related to the corresponding process when it is turned off.

[0076] That is, optionally, the process of "obtaining life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data acquisition process of the data acquisition gateway" in step S101 may include: when the start / stop switch of the data acquisition process is turned on, obtaining the life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data acquisition process of the data acquisition gateway; correspondingly, the process of "obtaining life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process of the data acquisition gateway" in step S101 may include: when the start / stop switch of the platform communication process is turned on, obtaining the life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process of the data acquisition gateway.

[0077] This embodiment can supervise the data related to the corresponding process only when the data collection process and / or the platform communication process is started, which meets the diverse needs of users and is more user-friendly.

[0078] In another embodiment of the present application, the present embodiment further includes a monitoring daemon process for health protection of the data collection process and the platform communication process, the monitoring daemon process refers to the process required for the operation of the gateway monitoring device, which can be run as a Windows service and automatically started when the operating system is turned on. The gateway monitoring device (which can be regarded as a dashboard of the Internet of Things IOT product on the edge side) refers to a device that executes the gateway monitoring method provided in the embodiment of the present application.

[0079] The above-mentioned “health protection” includes: when the data collection process and / or platform communication process is abnormally interrupted, the abnormally interrupted process will be restarted.

[0080] Optionally, the present embodiment may set a start / stop switch for the monitoring daemon process. Only when the user turns on the start / stop switch corresponding to the monitoring daemon process can the monitoring daemon process (i.e., the gateway monitoring device) run, and the present embodiment may obtain data related to the data acquisition process and the platform communication process, that is, the process of step S101 "obtaining life cycle data, resource usage data, and first log data related to the data acquisition process of the data acquisition gateway" and "obtaining life cycle data, resource usage data, and second log data related to the platform communication process of the data acquisition gateway" may include: responding to the instruction to turn on the start / stop switch of the monitoring daemon process, obtaining the life cycle data, resource usage data, and first log data related to the data acquisition process of the data acquisition gateway, and obtaining the life cycle data, resource usage data, and second log data related to the platform communication process of the data acquisition gateway.

[0081] That is, this embodiment monitors the data related to the data collection process and the platform communication process only when the gateway monitoring device is started and running.

[0082] In another embodiment of the present application, the gateway supervision method provided in this embodiment further includes the following steps S102 based on the above embodiments.

[0083] Step S102, obtain summary information of the data acquisition process, platform communication process and monitoring daemon process, and obtain resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located, and display the obtained summary information and resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located on the front-end page.

[0084] Among them, the summary information of a process includes one or more of the following information: life cycle data related to the process, resource usage data, message queue telemetry transmission MQTT connection and heartbeat data indicating whether the process is running normally, version information of the data acquisition gateway and the running time of the process (preferably, the running time refers to the effective running time); the life cycle data related to a process includes one or more of the following data: process status, process status change time, process identifier, process exit code and exit message; the resource usage data related to a process includes one or more of the following data: CPU usage data, memory usage data and disk usage data of the process.

[0085] Of course, the above summary information is only an example, and other information may also be included, such as the most recent startup time.

[0086] Optionally, in this embodiment, "displaying the acquired summary information on the front-end page" includes: displaying the summary information of the data acquisition process, the platform communication process and the monitoring daemon process acquired at the current moment on the front-end interface respectively.

[0087] Optionally, if the resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located is CPU usage data or memory usage data, then the present embodiment of "displaying the resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located on the front-end page" includes: during the operation of the monitoring daemon process, a trend curve of the resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located changing over time is displayed on the front-end page.

[0088] Take the resource usage data of the server where the data collection gateway is located, including system CPU usage data, memory usage data, and disk usage data, as an example. Figure 2 The diagram shown is a front-end page containing summary information of the process and resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located.

[0089] Figure 2It shows the system CPU usage data (i.e., the CPU usage data of the server where the data collection gateway is located) and system memory usage data (i.e., the memory usage data of the server where the data collection gateway is located) from 10:40 to 10:45, as well as the disk usage of the server at the current time (10:45).

[0090] at the same time, Figure 2 The summary information of the data acquisition process, platform communication process and monitoring daemon process is shown. Taking the data acquisition process as an example, "Running" means that the data acquisition process is in the running state at the current moment, "11 minutes and 53 seconds" means that the data acquisition process has currently run for 11 minutes and 53 seconds, "V1.3.1185 process" indicates the version information of the data acquisition process, that is, the version information of the gateway monitoring device, "CPU: 0.00%" indicates that the CPU usage data of the data acquisition process at the current moment is 0.00%, "Memory: 0.09%" indicates that the memory usage data of the data acquisition process at the current moment is 0.09%, "14.0M" indicates that the disk usage data of the data acquisition process at the current moment is 14.0M, "MQTT connected heartbeat normal" is the MQTT connection and heartbeat data, which indicates that the data acquisition process is running normally, and "Last start: 2020-12-03 10:36:58" indicates that the data acquisition process was last started at 10:36:58 on December 3, 2020.

[0091] Optional, such as Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also provides a "Details" entrance for the data collection process, platform communication process, and monitoring daemon process. The user can enter the front-end page of the corresponding process by clicking "Details". This embodiment can display data related to the corresponding process on the front-end page of the corresponding process, such as the life cycle data, resource usage data, and log data obtained in step S101. Here, the page of resource usage data related to the corresponding process displayed on the front-end page is the same as Figure 2 Similarly, this embodiment will not be described again.

[0092] It is worth noting that the front-end page of the monitoring daemon process will also display the trend curve of the capacity of the database corresponding to the data acquisition gateway changing over time. That is, the gateway supervision method provided in this embodiment can also determine the trend curve of the capacity of the database corresponding to the data acquisition gateway changing over time during the operation of the monitoring daemon process, and respond to the instruction to enter the details page of the monitoring daemon process to display the trend curve of the capacity of the database corresponding to the data acquisition gateway changing over time on the front-end page (i.e., the details page).

[0093] Optionally, in this embodiment, each of the front-end pages mentioned above is compiled by the react-based front-end and called a static resource, and supervises the monitoring daemon process. Since the static front-end page compiled by react technology is a prior art, it will not be described in detail in this patent.

[0094] In summary, this embodiment can display the summary information of each process and the resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located on the front-end interface, so that users can quickly determine whether the data acquisition gateway is in an abnormal state based on the summary information of each process and the resource usage data of the server where the data acquisition gateway is located, and can quickly diagnose the abnormal location of the data acquisition gateway. For example, if the summary information of the data acquisition process displays "MQTT not connected, heartbeat abnormal", it can be judged that the data acquisition process of the data acquisition gateway is abnormal, that is, the current data acquisition gateway cannot collect data normally due to the abnormal data acquisition process.

[0095] At the same time, by entering the details page of each process, you can see the data related to each process. Based on this data, you can also quickly diagnose the abnormal location of the data acquisition gateway. For example, if the memory usage data of the data acquisition process is greater than the memory threshold of normal data collection, it can be determined that the current data acquisition gateway cannot collect data normally due to insufficient memory.

[0096] The present application also provides a gateway monitoring device. Figure 3 , shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the gateway monitoring device provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the gateway monitoring device may include: a process management unit 301 , and the process management unit 301 may include a data collection process management unit 3011 and a platform communication process management unit 3012 .

[0097] The data collection process management unit 3011 is used to obtain life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data collection process of the data collection gateway, and manage the obtained data, wherein the data collection process refers to the process of the data collection gateway collecting data from the southbound device, and the first log data includes log data related to the state change of the data collection process and log data related to the collected data;

[0098] The platform communication process management unit 3012 is used to obtain life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process of the data acquisition gateway, and manage the obtained data, wherein the platform communication process refers to the process in which the data acquisition gateway reports the data collected from the southbound device to the northbound, and the second log data includes log data related to the state change of the platform communication process and log data related to the northbound reported data;

[0099] Among them, the life cycle data, resource usage data and first log data related to the data acquisition process, and the life cycle data, resource usage data and second log data related to the platform communication process are used to determine the status of the data acquisition gateway.

[0100] The working principle of the gateway monitoring device provided in the embodiment of the present application is the same as the working principle of the gateway monitoring method described above. For details, please refer to the introduction in the aforementioned gateway monitoring method, which will not be repeated here.

[0101] Corresponding to the aforementioned gateway monitoring method and device, the present application also provides a gateway monitoring system, such as Figure 4 As shown, the gateway supervision system includes a gateway supervision device 41 and a data collection gateway 42 .
