Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the maturity and development of cloud computing technology, network operation and maintenance require monitoring a large number of network devices and their corresponding network metrics. Maintenance personnel need to conduct timely trend analysis and comparative analysis based on the metric data to monitor the stability of network operation.

[0003] In the process of monitoring and managing network indicators of network devices, existing network management systems mostly display network indicators in the form of reports. These reports mainly allow for direct export and viewing of network indicators, but cannot be customized according to the needs of maintenance personnel. However, in some cases, maintenance personnel need to perform addition, subtraction, or simple manual calculations on some network indicators to observe them. This makes it difficult to determine the combined results of multiple network indicators in a timely manner, resulting in poor network operation and maintenance efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a method, apparatus, and readable storage medium for determining network metrics, which can improve the service quality of a cloud platform while dynamically adjusting the configuration resources of the cloud platform.

[0030] With the maturity and development of cloud computing technology, network operation and maintenance require monitoring a large number of network devices and their corresponding network metrics. Maintenance personnel need to perform timely trend analysis and comparative analysis of the metric data to monitor the stability of network operation.

[0031] In the process of monitoring and managing network indicators of network devices, existing network management systems mostly display network indicators in the form of reports. These reports mainly allow for direct export and viewing of network indicators, but cannot be customized according to the needs of maintenance personnel. However, in some cases, maintenance personnel need to perform addition, subtraction, or simple manual calculations on some network indicators to observe them. This makes it difficult to determine the combined results of multiple network indicators in a timely manner, resulting in poor network operation and maintenance efficiency.

[0032] For example, network metrics may include network bandwidth, network latency, 5G network traffic share, and 5G network traffic retention rate.

[0033] In view of this, embodiments of this application provide a method for determining network metrics, including:

[0034] In response to a user's first control operation on a terminal device, a custom template is generated. The custom template includes at least one custom formula. The custom formula is used to perform combined calculations on the indicator values ​​of at least one network indicator, which is used to characterize network performance. The first custom formula is converted to a first format to obtain a first custom formula in a first format, and the first custom formula in the first format is stored in a target database. The first format is a format recognizable by the target database. The first custom formula is any one of at least one custom formula. The indicator values ​​of at least one network indicator within a target time period are determined. The first custom formula in the first format and the indicator values ​​are converted to a second format to obtain a first custom formula in a second format and indicator values ​​in a second format, which is a format recognizable by the server. The first custom formula in the second format is used to process the indicator values ​​in the second format to obtain a target combination result, which is used to characterize the stability of network operation.

[0057] To facilitate a clear description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used in the embodiments of this application to distinguish identical or similar items with essentially the same function and effect. Those skilled in the art will understand that the terms "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity or execution order, and the terms "first" and "second" are not necessarily different.

For example, at least one of a, b, or c can mean: a, b, c, ab, ac, bc, or abc, where a, b, and c can be single or multiple.

[0060] The following is combined with Figure 1 The network metric determination system based on a custom formula is shown, and the network metric determination method provided in the embodiments of this application is described.

[0061] Figure 3 This application provides a method for determining network metrics, which can be applied to a server or a determining device. Figure 2 The determining device 11 can also be a component within the determining device 11, such as a chip. This application uses a server as an example for illustration. Figure 3 As shown, the method includes the following steps S301-S305:

[0062] S301. In response to the user's first control operation on the terminal device, a custom template is generated.

[0063] The custom template includes at least one custom formula; the custom formula is used to perform combined calculations on the numerical values ​​of at least one network metric, which is used to characterize the performance of the network.

[0064] The first control operation can be a click operation on the first displayed interface. For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first display interface can include multiple network metrics and multiple custom formulas across multiple nodes. For example, the multiple nodes can include a Level 1 node, a Level 2 node, and a Level 3 node. A Level 1 node can also include multiple Level 2 nodes. For example, a Level 1 node can include a Level 2 node 1-1 (including metrics A, B, C, and D), and a Level 1 node 3 can include a Level 2 node 3-1, a Level 2 node 3-2 (including metric A), and a Level 2 node 3-3 (including metric A and metric B).

[0065] In one example, the custom formula may include N1, N2, N3, N4, and N5. Where N1 = P1 + P2, N2 = P2 - P3, N3 = P3, N4 = P1 + P4, and N5 = (P1 - P2). 2+P5+P6. There is no limit to the number of definable indicators; they can be added or removed as needed.

[0066] The server can control the display of custom formula input boxes in the front-end webpage template of the terminal device. The input box can include the newly defined indicator name corresponding to the custom formula and the custom formula itself. The data for the custom formula can be set as needed. For example, the first display interface can include "Add Indicator" and "Delete Indicator" buttons. The server can respond to the user's click on the "Add Indicator" button by adding more custom formulas, or respond to the user's click on the "Delete Indicator" button by reducing the number of custom formulas. The first display interface may also include a "Save Template" button to save the user's actions.

[0067] S302. Convert the first custom formula to a first format to obtain the first custom formula in the first format, and store the first custom formula in the first format in the target database.

[0068] The first custom formula in the first format is used for identification in the target database; the first custom formula can be any one of at least one custom formula. For example, the first format can be a string format.

[0069] As one possible implementation, the server can determine the first format that the target database can recognize through query messages, and convert the first custom formula to the first format through a format conversion plugin to obtain the first custom formula in the first format. Furthermore, the first custom formula in the first format is stored in the target database.

[0070] For example, upon receiving a first custom formula instruction in a first format, the server can send a query message to the target database. Correspondingly, the target database receives the query message and sends a first format recognizable by the target database back to the server.

[0071] S303. Determine the value of at least one network indicator within the target time period.

[0072] The target time period can be set as needed. For example, it can be the hour before the current time, the day before the current time, or the week before the current time.

[0073] As one possible implementation, the server can respond to the user's second control operation on the terminal device, extract the identifier corresponding to at least one network indicator from the first custom formula in the first format, and determine the indicator value of at least one network indicator within the target time period based on the identifier.

[0074] It should be noted that the second control operation can be a click operation on the second display interface (also known as the template query interface). For example, the second display interface may include all custom templates stored in the target database.

[0075] In one example, the server can respond to a user's click on a custom template in the second display interface, extract the identifier corresponding to at least one network metric in the first custom formula of the first format, and match it in the network log data according to the identifier to determine the metric value of at least one network metric in the target time period.

[0076] In practical applications, network metric data can be represented using pandas' dataframe format.

[0077] S304. Convert the first custom formula in the first format and the indicator value to the second format to obtain the first custom formula in the second format and the indicator value in the second format.

[0078] The second format is one that the server can recognize. For example, it can be a series format.

[0079] As one possible implementation, after obtaining the first custom formula and indicator value in the first format, the server can send the first custom formula and indicator value in the first format, along with a second format that it can recognize, to the format conversion plugin. This allows the format conversion plugin to convert the first custom formula and indicator value in the first format to the second format, resulting in the first custom formula and indicator value in the second format.

[0080] As another possible implementation, after the server obtains the first custom formula and indicator value in the first format, it can use a preset function to convert the first custom formula and indicator value in the first format to the second format, thereby obtaining the first custom formula in the second format and the indicator value in the second format.

[0081] The preset function can be set as needed. For example, the preset function can be the eval function.

[0082] S305. Using the first custom formula of the second format, process the index values ​​of the second format to obtain the target combination result.

[0083] The target combination result is used to characterize the stability of network operation. For example, the stability of network operation can be categorized as excellent, good, or poor. If the volatility of the target combination result is less than a first volatility threshold, the server can determine that the network operation is in an excellent stable state. If the volatility of the target combination result is greater than or equal to the first volatility threshold and less than a second volatility threshold, the network operation is determined to be in a good stable state. If the volatility of the target combination result is greater than or equal to the second volatility threshold, the network operation is determined to be in a poor stable state.

[0084] The first and second fluctuation thresholds can be set as needed. For example, the first fluctuation threshold can be 10%, and the second fluctuation threshold can be 30%.

[0085] As one possible implementation, the server can substitute the index values ​​in the second format into the first custom formula in the second format for calculation to obtain the target combination result.

[0086] It should be noted that the results of the target combination can be displayed in the form of a table, a line chart, etc., without restriction.

[0087] Based on the technical solution provided in this application, multiple custom formulas can be created according to user needs. These custom formulas are then converted to a first format and stored in the target database. Since the first format is recognizable by the target database, it allows the database to identify the custom formulas and determine the value of at least one network indicator within a target time period. Furthermore, the first custom formula in the first format and the indicator value are converted to a second format, resulting in the first custom formula in the second format and the indicator value in the second format. Since the second format is recognizable by the server, the pre-stored custom formula and the indicator value of at least one network indicator within it can be used to obtain the target combination result without needing to export at least one network indicator and perform manual calculations. This significantly shortens the time required to determine the target combination result and improves network operation and maintenance efficiency.

[0088] One possible implementation, such as Figure 5 As shown, in order to extract the identifier corresponding to at least one network indicator in the first custom formula of the first format, the determination method of this application may further include the following S401-S402.

[0089] S401, Determine the first array.

[0090] The first array is the array obtained by stripping the operators from the first custom formula of the first format.

[0091] As one possible implementation, the server can identify each character in the first custom formula of the first format, obtain the identification result signal, and then strip the operators in the first custom formula of the first format according to the identification result signal to obtain the first array.

[0092] The recognition result signal includes a first recognition result signal and a second recognition result signal. The first recognition result signal is used to indicate that the character is an operator, and the second recognition result signal is used to indicate that the character is a negation operator.

[0093] If the server determines that the recognition result signal of the first character is the first recognition result signal, then the first character is determined to be an operator. If the server determines that the recognition result signal of the first character is the second recognition result signal, then the first character is determined to be a NOT operator. The first character is any character in the first custom formula of the first format.

[0094] Furthermore, if the server determines that the first character is an operator, it will strip the first character until every character in the first custom formula of the first format has been traversed.

[0095] For example, the first custom formula in the first format is N5=(P1-P2). In the case of 2+P5+P6 +P5, the operators include + and -. , / ,(,), the numbers include 2. The first array can be [P1,P2,P5,P6,P5].

[0096] S402. Perform deduplication on the first array to extract the identifier corresponding to at least one network indicator in the first custom formula of the first format.

[0097] As one possible implementation, the server can determine the number of times each network indicator appears in the first array, and if the number of times the first network indicator appears is not 1, delete the first network indicator that does not appear for the first time, so as to extract the identifier corresponding to at least one network indicator in the first custom formula of the first format.

[0098] For example, if the first array is [P1,P2,P5,P6,P5], after deduplication of the first array, the identifier corresponding to at least one network indicator in the first custom formula of the first format can be [P1,P2,P5,P6].

[0099] In one possible embodiment, to store a first custom formula in a first format in a target database, the determination method of this application may further include the following S501.

[0100] S501, Send a verification message to the target database.

[0101] The verification message includes the server's system identifier and access key. This message instructs the target database to authenticate the server and, if authentication is successful, stores a first custom formula in a first format. For example, the server's system identifier could be sysid1, and the access key could be secret.

[0102] For example, the target database can compare the server's system identifier and access key with the server's system identifier and access key pre-stored internally, and authenticate the server based on the comparison result.

[0103] It should be noted that if the comparison result shows that the server's system identifier and access key are the same as the server's system identifier and access key stored internally, then the server authentication is considered successful. If the comparison result shows that the server's system identifier and access key are different from the server's system identifier and access key stored internally, then the server authentication is considered unsuccessful.

[0104] This prevents unauthorized servers from accessing the target database and improves the security of network operations and maintenance.
