[0051] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0052] An embodiment of the present application provides a communication budget generation method for a data center, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0053] Step 101: Obtain historical communication bills for a first preset time period, and verify whether the historical communication bills for the first preset time period are accurate according to a preset communication contract;

[0054] Step 102: In response to determining that the historical communication bills for the first preset time period are accurate, generating a first budget for a second preset time period according to the historical communication bills for the first preset time period;

[0055] Step 103: In response to determining that there is a business demand, generating a second budget for the second preset time period according to the business demand;

[0056] Step 104: Generate a communication budget for the second preset time period according to the first budget and the second budget, wherein the second preset time period is after the first preset time period.

[0057] The present application optimizes the method for budgeting data center communication costs, solves the problems of large errors and low efficiency, realizes budgeting data center communication costs, and is conducive to improving the accuracy and efficiency of budgeting data center communication costs.

[0058] Below Figure 1 Each step is introduced:

[0059] Step 101: Obtain historical communication bills for a first preset time period, and verify whether the historical communication bills for the first preset time period are accurate according to a preset communication contract.

[0060] In this embodiment, the first preset time period is a time period before the current time with reference to the current time. For example, if the current time is March 1, the first preset time period may be a few days, months or years before March 1. This application does not limit this.

[0061] In a specific example, the present application provides an automated and intelligent communication budget automatic generation solution, including six functional modules: a communication contract import module, a communication bill import module, a communication bill statistical analysis module, a communication budget analysis module, a business demand input module, and a communication budget generation module.

[0062] Among them, the communication contract import module is a module for realizing the entry of communication contracts. The rate standard in the communication contract is the standard for checking the communication bill and is also the basis for formulating the communication budget; the communication bill import module is a module for entering the communication bills for each time period (monthly, quarterly, etc.). The communication bill is the actual communication resource usage fee incurred within a certain time period issued by each communication operator. It is the basis for financial payment and also the basis for formulating the communication budget.

[0063] It should be understood that the communication contract stores the tariff standards for various communication resources, and the historical communication bill stores the actual costs of various communication resources. Figure 2 As shown, step 101 further includes:

[0064] Step 1011: obtaining the actual usage of each communication resource, and determining the theoretical cost of each communication resource according to the tariff standard of each communication resource and the actual usage;

[0065] Step 1012: In response to the theoretical cost of each communication resource matching the actual cost of each communication resource, determining that the historical communication bill for the first preset time period is accurate;

[0066] Step 1013: In response to the theoretical costs of each communication resource not matching the actual costs of each communication resource, determining that the historical communication bill for the first preset time period is inaccurate.

[0067] In some optional aspects of this embodiment, the communication bill statistical analysis module includes a communication bill checking module, which is used to check the accuracy of the communication bill according to the tariff standard in the communication contract.

[0068] Step 102: In response to determining that the historical communication bills for the first preset time period are accurate, generate a first budget for a second preset time period according to the historical communication bills for the first preset time period.

[0069] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the historical communication bills of the first preset time period are accurate, it indicates that the first budget for the second preset time period can be generated with reference to the historical communication bills of the first preset time period. The first budget includes a baseline budget and a change budget, the baseline budget is a basic budget, and the change budget is an uncertain budget with fluctuations, which needs to be analyzed in combination with the business changes in the first preset time period. In other words, the communication budget analysis module includes two parts: a communication baseline budget generation module and a communication change budget analysis module.

[0070] In some optional embodiments of this embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, step 102 further includes:

[0071] Step 1021: Acquire a historical communication bill for a third preset time period from the historical communication bill for the first preset time period, and generate a benchmark budget for the second preset time period based on the historical communication bill for the third preset time period.

[0072] According to the foregoing, the first preset time period is a period of time earlier than the current time. In this embodiment, the third preset time period is within the first preset time period, that is, historical communication bills of a part of the time period are selected from the historical communication bills of the first preset time period as a basis to generate a benchmark budget for the second preset time period, wherein the second preset time period is after the first preset time period, that is, with the current time as a reference, the second preset time period is after the current time, for example, the current time is March 1, and the first preset time period may be a period of time after March 1, thus, the second preset time period is after the first preset time period.

[0073] In some optional embodiments of this embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, step 1021 further includes:

[0074] Step 10211: The first month of the second preset time period is used as the budget starting month;

[0075] Step 10212: In response to the third preset time period being the month before the budget start month, determining the communication fee for the month before the budget start month according to the historical communication bills for the month before the budget start month;

[0076] Step 10213: determine the number of months included in the second preset time period, take the communication fee as the basis, multiply the number of months to obtain the predicted fee for the second preset time period, and use the predicted fee as the benchmark budget.

[0077] In a specific example, the communication benchmark budget generation module calculates and generates the communication benchmark budget expenses for the subsequent period based on the communication expense bill of the month before the budget start month. For example, when formulating the communication budget for 2023, the communication expenses in December 2022 are used as the basis and multiplied by 12 months to obtain the benchmark budget for communication expenses in 2023.

[0078] Step 1022: Determine changes in each communication resource based on historical communication bills for the first preset time period, and generate a change budget for the second preset time period based on the changes.

[0079] In this embodiment, the communication bill statistical analysis module also includes a communication bill information statistics module and a communication bill change statistics module. The communication bill information statistics module counts the communication bills according to dimensions such as operator, time, and communication resource type, such as the charges of Internet dedicated lines of each operator in March 2023; the communication bill change statistics module compares the differences between the current bill and the historical bill in terms of communication resources, and statistics the addition, withdrawal, and adjustment of communication resources. For example, the charge for a new telecommunications long-distance dedicated line in March 2023 is compared with the charge before March 2023, and this charge is the cost generated by the new dedicated line.

[0080] In some optional embodiments of this embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the determining of the change of communication resources according to the historical communication bills of the first preset time period includes:

[0081] Step 10221: Count the changes of each communication resource between the previous month and the next month within the first preset time period one by one, wherein the changes include newly added communication resources, cancelled communication resources, and adjusted communication resources;

[0082] Step 10222: In response to determining that the types of communication resources in the historical communication bills of the next month are more than the types of the historical communication bills of the previous month, determining that the change is the newly added communication resources;

[0083] Step 10223: In response to determining that the type of communication resources in the historical communication bill of the next month is less than the type of the historical communication bill of the previous month, determining that the change is the revocation of communication resources;

[0084] Step 10224: In response to determining that the usage of communication resources in the historical communication bill for the next month is different from the usage of communication resources in the historical communication resource bill for the previous month, determine that the change is to adjust the communication resources.

[0085] In this embodiment, the changes in each communication resource between the previous month and the next month within the first preset time period are counted one by one. When it is determined that the type of communication resources in the historical communication bill of the next month is more than the type of the historical communication bill of the previous month, the change is determined to be the newly added communication resources; when it is determined that the type of communication resources in the historical communication bill of the next month is less than the type of the historical communication bill of the previous month, the change is determined to be the cancellation of communication resources; when it is determined that the usage of communication resources in the historical communication bill of the next month is different from the usage of communication resources in the historical communication resource bill of the previous month, the change is determined to be the adjustment of communication resources.

[0086] Further, if Figure 6As shown, generating a change budget for the second preset time period according to the change situation includes:

[0087] Step 10225: In response to the change being the newly added communication resource, determining the type and a first preset usage amount of the newly added communication resource, determining a first tariff standard of the type of the newly added communication resource from the preset communication contract, and determining a new budget according to the first tariff standard and the first preset usage amount;

[0088] Step 10226: In response to the change being the revocation of the communication resource, determining the type of the revoked communication resource and a second preset usage amount, determining a second tariff standard for the type of the revoked communication resource from the preset communication contract, and determining a revocation budget according to the second tariff standard and the second preset usage amount;

[0089] Step 10227: In response to the change being the adjustment of the communication resource, determining the type of the adjusted communication resource and the adjusted usage amount, determining a third tariff standard for the type of the adjusted communication resource from the preset communication contract, and determining an adjustment budget according to the third tariff standard and the adjusted usage amount;

[0090] In this embodiment, different change budgets can be determined according to different change situations. When the change situation is the newly added communication resources, it is necessary to determine the new budget based on the expected usage of the newly added communication resources and the actual communication charge standard, and increase the new budget on the basis of the baseline budget; similarly, when the change situation is the cancellation of communication resources, it is necessary to determine the cancellation budget based on the expected usage of the cancelled communication resources and the actual communication charge standard, and reduce the cancellation budget on the basis of the baseline budget; when the change situation is the adjustment of communication resources, it is necessary to determine the adjusted budget based on the adjusted usage of the adjusted communication resources and the actual communication charge standard. It should be understood that adjusting communication resources may be an increase in usage or a decrease in usage. Therefore, the adjustment budget should be increased or decreased on the basis of the baseline budget.

[0091] Step 10228: Generate a change budget for the second preset time period according to one or more of the newly added budget, the cancelled budget, and the adjusted budget.

[0092] In this embodiment, according to the actual situation and the method of step 10227, one or more of the new budget, the canceled budget and the adjusted budget should be calculated, and one or more of them should be used as the changed budget.

[0093] In a specific example, the aforementioned communication change budget analysis module, through the analysis of the overall situation and changing trends of communication costs over the years, combined with the communication resource requirements input by the 105 business demand input module, calculates the changing costs in the communication budget. For example, in the four years from 2019 to 2022, the communication cost change trends are 20%, 20%, 10%, and 30%. It can be predicted that the communication costs in 2023 are expected to increase by 20% compared with 2022. At the same time, combined with the business demand plan for 2023, such as a 100% increase in the business volume of a certain channel and an expansion of the Internet bandwidth by 1.5G, the changes in communication costs caused by historical changes and business needs are comprehensively considered to obtain the calculation of the changing part of the communication budget.

[0094] Step 1023: Generate a first budget for the second preset time period according to the baseline budget and the change budget, wherein the third preset time period is within the first preset time period.

[0095] In this embodiment, the change budget is increased or decreased on the basis of the reference budget to obtain the first budget for the second preset time period.

[0096] Step 103: In response to determining that there is a business demand, generate a second budget for the second preset time period according to the business demand.

[0097] In this embodiment, the type of communication resources corresponding to the business demand and the third preset usage are determined, and a fourth tariff standard for the type of communication resources corresponding to the business demand is determined from the preset communication contract. Based on the fourth tariff standard and the third preset usage, a second budget for the second preset time period is generated.

[0098] In a specific example, the business demand input module is a module that proposes the communication resource demand corresponding to business changes. Changes in the business needs of various business and technical departments, such as those involving communication resources, are input through this module and used as a factor in subsequent budget formulation. For example, if new business with an insurance company is added, it is estimated that a third-party dedicated line from the data center to the insurance company will need to be opened in x year x month. This business impact needs to be considered in budget formulation. For another example, the number of customers accessing a certain channel is expected to increase by 100%, and the Internet dedicated line needs to be expanded, which also needs to be included in the budget overall consideration.

[0099] Step 104: Generate a communication budget for the second preset time period according to the first budget and the second budget, wherein the second preset time period is after the first preset time period.

[0100] In this embodiment, the sum of the first budget and the second budget is the communication budget for the second preset time period. It should be noted that the budget described in this application is not only understood as a monetary amount, but also includes multi-dimensional information such as various communication resources and the expected usage of various communication resources.

[0101] Finally, the communication budget generation module takes the communication budget analysis module as input and combines the test results of the communication baseline budget generation module and the communication change budget analysis module to generate the final communication budget.

[0102] In addition, taking the communication contract import module, communication fee bill import module, communication bill statistical analysis module, communication budget analysis module, business demand input module and communication budget generation module of the aforementioned example as an example, the flowchart involved in this application is as follows: Figure 7 As shown in the flowchart, each step is explained in detail as follows:

[0103] (1) Communication contract introduction;

[0104] (2) Import communication bills;

[0105] (3) Check the accuracy of the communication bill according to the rate standard of the communication contract;

[0106] (4) The bill information is stored and classified and counted. If it is inaccurate, the bill is re-imported; if it is accurate, (5) is executed;

[0107] (5) Whether there are any differences between the current bill and the previous bill;

[0108] (6) If there is no difference, it will be included in the baseline budget. If there is a difference, the change will be statistically analyzed and included in the change budget;

[0109] (7) Proposing the communication resource requirements corresponding to the business changes, i.e. business demand input;

[0110] (8) Combine the baseline budget, variation budget and business demand input to arrive at the communications budget.

[0111] Thus, the communication budget generation method for a data center provided in the present application can solve the problem that manual calculation is prone to calculation errors during the budget formulation process of the communication costs of the data center, and there is no effective means to predict new business, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of the budget formulation of the communication costs of the data center.

[0112] It should be noted that the acquisition, storage, use and processing of data in the technical solution of this application are in compliance with the relevant provisions of laws and regulations.
