Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the application update technical field, in particular to a download service layered distribution method and device, electronic equipment and storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the information age, the stability, security and functionality of enterprise software systems are crucial to enterprise operations. Ensuring that application software is effectively updated in a timely manner is crucial to building a robust operation system, improving internal management efficiency, achieving sustainable growth and maintaining a competitive advantage.

[0003] In order to update the version of the enterprise application software in a timely manner, one current method is to apply P2P technology to the enterprise application store. Since P2P technology allows each node in the network to be both a service requester and a service provider, this feature allows any node to download parts of the software from multiple nodes that have already updated the software version, thereby achieving timely updating of the software on itself and also providing services as a service provider after updating to download the software for other nodes.

[0004] However, many large enterprise internal networks are complex and have strict security requirements, so the networks between most institutions of the enterprise cannot directly interoperate, and therefore the nodes of different institutions cannot provide services to each other, and this method cannot be used. The number of nodes within an institution is limited and cannot take advantage of P2P technology, and may also cause file download success rate to decrease due to resource competition, delaying timely software version updates. Moreover, even if the networks of different institutions can directly interoperate, the broadband configuration of different institutions is much lower than that of the local area network within the institution, so the file download speed from multiple nodes of different institutions is slow, especially when multiple terminals simultaneously initiate download requests, the limited broadband resources will greatly reduce the download speed, and even cause download failure, thereby seriously affecting the timely updating of the software.

Therefore, only when there is no temporary distribution service node, it will be downloaded from the parent application distribution server. As a result, only a small number of terminal download requests are processed by the parent application distribution server, while most of the terminal download requests are processed by the temporary distribution service node in the same network segment.

[0058] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0059] In this application, relational terms such as first and second, etc., are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. In the absence of further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a ..." does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus comprising the element.

[0060] The embodiment of the present application provides a download service layered distribution method, which is applied to the parent application distribution server. Figure 1 As shown, the download service layered distribution method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:

[0061] S101: Receive a download request for a target application sent by any target terminal.

[0062] The target terminals are those in the various network segments of the lower layer managed by the parent application distribution server. Therefore, the parent application distribution server is a server in the upper layer, and multiple terminals in the lower layer are connected to it. In other words, the parent application distribution server and the terminals it manages are interconnected. However, the terminals in the lower layer may belong to different organizations, so there may be terminals in different network segments.

[0063] Therefore, in order to determine the parent application distribution server, the terminals managed by the parent application distribution service, and the network segments to which each terminal belongs, etc., it is optional to first determine the internal network architecture and terminal distribution information of the enterprise, so as to facilitate the sorting out of relevant information such as the location and IP address range of different organizations and different terminals within the enterprise. Specifically, it may include but is not limited to the network segment information of each organization, such as the starting address of the network segment, the number of terminal IPs that can be allocated, the number of terminals currently in use, etc., as well as actual information such as the intercommunication status between different network segments.

[0064] Based on the information collated above, software distribution rules can be set, including but not limited to network access rules, data transmission control rules between network segments, and the download protocol used. For example, only HTTP data transmission between terminals within a specific network segment is allowed, and the corresponding policy control methods are used to implement layered distribution of application services. In addition, a parent application distribution server can be set up, network segments can be divided, etc. Among them, the parent application distribution server is the source application distribution server, and its role is to provide a source download file task list and its corresponding software, and provide download service capabilities. Based on the software distribution rules set above, the relevant configuration control is specifically implemented to achieve software distribution.

[0065] Therefore, for each target terminal of a parent application distribution server, when it needs to download an application for update, it needs to send a download request for the application to the parent application distribution server. Optionally, for a target terminal, it can periodically initiate a request to download the update package to the parent application distribution server after the operating system is started, or a user can actively trigger the request to download the current update package to the parent application distribution server. At this time, the parent application distribution server receives the download request for the target application sent by the target terminal.

[0066] S102: Determine whether there is a temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs.

[0067] The temporary distribution service node of the target application corresponding to a network segment is a terminal that belongs to the network segment and has downloaded the target application and started the temporary distribution service.

[0068] It should be noted that each network segment is pre-divided based on the network segment information of each terminal, and each terminal in the same network segment belongs to the same regional network. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, under the parent application distribution server S (59.184.1.1.112), the network segment can be divided into County Company A and County Company B. County Company A's network segment is: 59.168.1.0 / 25 and County Company B's network segment is: 59.138.1.128 / 25. Terminals A1 (59.168.1.2) and A2 (59.168.1.3) under County Company A both belong to County Company A's network segment (59.168.1.0 / 25).

[0069] Since the regional network has a relatively high broadband configuration, that is, the terminals in the same regional network have a relatively high data transmission speed. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, a temporary distribution service is started in the terminal that has downloaded the target application in each network segment, so that the terminal is used as a temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment, that is, relative to the fixed application distribution node of the parent application distribution server, it is used as a temporary distribution node, so that the terminal can distribute the target application to other terminals in the network segment through the temporary distribution service, and then can achieve rapid application updates with the help of the relatively high broadband configuration in the network segment. Optionally, the temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to a network segment can include only one or more.

[0070] Optionally, for a temporary distribution service node, it may become invalid after the application has been further updated, or after the validity period has expired, or after a specific event, such as the terminal has been restarted or all terminals in the network segment have been updated, that is, it will no longer serve as a temporary distribution service node to provide temporary distribution services for the target application.

[0071] Optionally, in order to avoid the temporary distribution service corresponding to a network segment needing to distribute applications to a large number of terminals, the enlarged network segment, that is, the network segment containing a larger number of terminals, can be split into multiple network segments. For example, for the 59.168.2.0 / 24 network segment, it can be split into: 56.168.2.0 / 25 and 56.168.2.128 / 25, thereby reducing the number of terminals included in a network segment and correspondingly increasing the number of sub-download points, that is, the number of temporary distribution service nodes. Therefore, the stability of the network can be guaranteed, and the needs of multi-point distribution can be flexibly realized, thereby providing overall download efficiency.

[0072] Therefore, for a target terminal, the download speed from the temporary distribution service node corresponding to the network segment to which it belongs is much faster than the download speed from the parent application distribution server. In addition, since the parent application distribution server manages more terminals, in order to avoid too many terminals downloading from the parent application distribution server, increasing the load of the parent application distribution server and causing broadband congestion, affecting the download speed of the temporary distribution service node, when a target terminal needs to download an application, the parent application distribution server will give priority to it to download from the corresponding temporary distribution service node. Therefore, at this time, it will be determined whether there is a temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs.

[0073] If it is determined that there is no temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, that is, the target terminal is the first terminal in the network segment to request downloading the target application, or the temporary distribution service node in the network segment has expired, then downloading can only be done from the parent application distribution server, so step S103 is executed. If it is determined that there is a temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, step S105 can be executed.

[0074] Optionally, in another embodiment of the present application, a specific implementation of step S102 includes:

[0075] It is determined whether a currently valid IP address of a temporary distribution service node of a target application in a network segment to which the target terminal belongs is recorded.

[0076] In order to facilitate forwarding the request to the temporary distribution service node, the IP address of the temporary distribution service node of the target application will be recorded. Therefore, if it is determined that the IP address of the temporary distribution service node of the target application of the network segment to which the currently valid target terminal belongs is recorded, it is determined that there is a temporary distribution service node of the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs.

[0077] Specifically, in order to determine the status of the temporary distribution service of each temporary distribution service node in a timely manner, it is necessary to continuously monitor the download service status of each network segment to ensure the normal operation of the service and to handle possible failures or abnormal situations in a timely manner.

[0078] Optionally, in another embodiment of the present application, before executing step S102, the process further includes:

[0079] Determine whether the IP address of the target terminal is within the pre-configured downloadable network segment.

[0080] To ensure that the parent application distribution server only handles download requests from terminals within the corresponding network segment, thereby preventing it from handling too many terminals' download traffic, the parent application distribution server's downloadable network segment is preconfigured. Therefore, it is necessary to determine whether the target terminal's IP address is within the preconfigured downloadable network segment. If the target terminal's IP address is within the preconfigured downloadable network segment, step S102 is performed.

[0081] Optionally, considering that a terminal in the network segment to which the target terminal belongs is already downloading the target application and the temporary distribution service has not yet been started, a temporary distribution service node can then provide the application distribution service. In order to avoid too many terminals downloading from the parent application distribution server, thereby affecting the download speed, in another embodiment of the present application, before executing step S102, the following steps are further performed:

[0082] Determine whether there is a terminal in the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, and download the target application from the parent application distribution server.

[0083] If it is determined that there is a terminal in the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, and the target application is downloaded from the parent application distribution server, the download request of the target application sent by the target terminal is added to the queue and waited until there is no terminal in the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, the target application is downloaded from the parent application distribution server, and the temporary distribution service is started, and then step S102 is executed.

[0084] If it is determined that there is no terminal in the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, the target application is downloaded from the parent application distribution server, and step S102 is directly executed.

[0085] S103: Provide download service to the target terminal and transmit the update package of the target application.

[0086] Since there is no temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, it can only be downloaded from the parent application distribution server. Therefore, the parent application distribution server responds to the download request of the target terminal and transmits the update package of the target application to the target terminal through the download server. For example, Figure 2 As shown, after terminal A1 sends a download request to the parent application distribution server S, if there is no corresponding temporary distribution service node in the field of County A Company, the parent application distribution server S directly provides download service to terminal A1 and transmits the update package of the target application.

[0087] Optionally, in order to avoid too many applications being downloaded from the parent application distribution server at the same time, which would affect the download rate, in another embodiment of the present application, before executing step S103, the following steps may be further included:

[0088] Determine whether the number of terminals currently downloading the target application from the parent application distribution server has reached a preset upper limit.

[0089] If it is determined that the number of terminals currently downloading the target application from the parent application distribution server has reached a preset upper limit, the download request for the target application sent by the target terminal is added to a queue for waiting until the number of terminals currently downloading the target application from the parent application distribution server does not reach the preset upper limit, and then step S103 is executed. If it is determined that the number of terminals currently downloading the target application from the parent application distribution server does not reach the preset upper limit, step S103 is executed.

[0090] S104: Start a temporary distribution service on the target terminal, making it a temporary distribution service node of the target application corresponding to the network segment.

[0091] Since there's no temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the target terminal's network segment at this point, it's necessary to activate the temporary distribution service on the target terminal, making it the temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to its network segment, allowing it to distribute applications to other terminals in the same network segment. Optionally, the parent application distribution server can trigger the target terminal to activate the temporary distribution service, or the target terminal can automatically activate the temporary distribution service after downloading the target application's update package.

[0092] Specifically, after the temporary service environment, including the network environment and file storage, is ready, the temporary service is immediately started and its availability is continuously monitored so as to be able to respond to download requests from other terminals in the same network segment in a timely manner.

[0093] Optionally, in another embodiment of the present application, after executing step S104, the following steps are further included:

[0094] Configure and maintain the temporary distribution service address of the target terminal based on the network segment to which the target terminal belongs.

[0095] It should be noted that in order to ensure that the temporary distribution service address of the target terminal is accessible in the local area network of the network segment to which it belongs, it is necessary to configure and maintain the temporary distribution service address of the target terminal based on the network segment to which the target terminal belongs. Figure 2 The URL of the temporary distribution service configuration of terminal A1 is "http: / / 59.168.1.2".

[0096] S105: redirect the download request of the target application sent by the target terminal to the temporary distribution service node, so that the temporary distribution service node provides a temporary download service to the target terminal through the temporary distribution service and transmits the update package of the target application.

[0097] Since a temporary distribution service node already exists at this time, the temporary distribution service node can provide download services, so the download request is redirected to the temporary distribution service address of the temporary distribution service node, so that the temporary distribution service node can provide temporary download services to the target terminal through the temporary distribution service and transmit the update package of the target application. Figure 2 As shown, when terminal A2 in the same network segment as terminal A1 initiates a download request, the parent application distribution server redirects the download request of terminal A2 to the URL of A1's temporary distribution service (http: / / 59.168.1.2).

[0098] Optionally, a temporary distribution service may be started on the target terminal at this time, so that the target terminal also becomes a temporary distribution service node of the network segment to which it belongs.

[0099] An embodiment of the present application provides a hierarchical distribution method for download services, which is applied to a mother application distribution server. In a specific distribution process, a download request for a target application sent by any target terminal is first received, wherein the target terminal is a terminal within each network segment of the lower layer managed by the mother application distribution server, so that each mother application distribution server is responsible for the terminals within a limited network segment, avoiding being responsible for the download of too many terminals and affecting the download speed. Then, it is determined whether there is a temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs. Among them, the temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to a network segment is a terminal that belongs to the network segment, has downloaded the target application, and provides temporary distribution services. If it is determined that there is no temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, a download service is provided to the target terminal, and the update package of the target application is transmitted, and a temporary distribution service is started on the target terminal, making it a temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which it belongs. If it is determined that there is a temporary distribution service node for the target application corresponding to the network segment to which the target terminal belongs, the download request for the target application sent by the target terminal will be redirected to the temporary distribution service node, so that the temporary distribution service node can provide the target terminal with a temporary download service through the temporary distribution service and transmit the update package of the target application. Therefore, only when there is no temporary distribution service node, it will be downloaded from the parent application distribution server. As a result, only a small number of terminal download requests are processed by the parent application distribution server, while most of the terminal download requests are processed by the temporary distribution service node in the same network segment. The terminals in the same network segment belong to the same local area network and have a faster download speed. Therefore, effective updates of all terminals in the entire enterprise can be efficiently achieved.

[0100] Another embodiment of the present application provides a download service layered distribution device, which is a parent application distribution server. Figure 3 As shown, the download service layer distribution device includes:

[0101] The request receiving unit 301 is configured to receive a download request for a target application sent by any target terminal.
