Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of software ecosystem operation technology, specifically to a system software ecosystem-based commercial operation management platform that supports revenue sharing from third-party plugins. Background Technology

[0002] With the deepening of digital transformation, system software has become a core productivity tool for enterprises and individual users. To meet the diverse and personalized needs of users, system software is gradually developing towards an ecosystem model, extending core functions by integrating third-party plugins, forming an ecosystem of core software and third-party plugins. However, the existing system software ecosystem faces many technical pain points in commercial operation and management: The high barriers to entry for third-party plugins, coupled with a lack of standardized entry processes and review mechanisms, make it difficult to guarantee plugin compatibility and security. This also increases the cost of integration for developers. The revenue-sharing model is simplistic, often using a fixed percentage, failing to differentiate based on plugin type, developer contribution, sales performance, and other factors, thus hindering incentives for high-quality developers. Transaction data is opaque; developers cannot view plugin sales data in real time and lack transparency regarding revenue-sharing calculations, potentially leading to trust issues. Settlement processes are complex and lengthy, prone to errors due to manual calculations, and lack standardized settlement documents and tax support, impacting developers' cash flow. Ecosystem operations lack data support; platforms cannot accurately grasp plugin operational status, changes in user needs, and ecosystem health, making it difficult to develop effective promotion strategies and ecosystem optimization plans. Plugin lifecycle management is inadequate, lacking full-process control over plugin version updates, feature iterations, and removal due to violations, resulting in inconsistent plugin quality within the ecosystem. These problems severely restrict the large-scale development of the system software ecosystem, reduce the participation of third-party developers, and negatively impact the commercial value and user experience of the system software ecosystem.

[0003] Therefore, this invention proposes a business operation management platform that enables standardized access to third-party plugins, differentiated revenue sharing, transparent settlement, and ecological operation, thereby addressing the shortcomings of existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a system software ecosystem-based commercial operation and management platform that supports revenue sharing for third-party plugins. This platform solves the technical problems in existing system software ecosystems, such as high barriers to entry for third-party plugins, a single revenue sharing model, opaque transaction data, complex settlement processes, and a lack of data support for ecosystem operations.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A system software ecosystem-based commercial operation and management platform that supports revenue sharing from third-party plugins includes a core service layer, a data storage layer, and a front-end interaction layer. The core service layer comprises a revenue sharing rule configuration module, a plugin access approval module, a transaction data statistics module, a settlement and payment module, an ecosystem operation analysis module, a plugin lifecycle management module, and a permission management module. The revenue sharing rule configuration module is used to configure and store differentiated revenue sharing rules for different third-party plugins. The revenue sharing rules include at least one of the following: revenue sharing ratio, settlement cycle, minimum withdrawal amount, platform service fee ratio, and tiered revenue sharing conditions. The plugin access review module is used to receive access applications from third-party plugins, and to complete the plugin compatibility, security and compliance verification through a combination of automatic review and manual review, and output the review results. The transaction data statistics module is used to collect transaction data of users purchasing and subscribing to third-party plugins in real time, generate standardized transaction records, and synchronize them to the data storage layer. The settlement and payment module is used to calculate the developer's share of the revenue based on transaction data and corresponding revenue sharing rules, supports multi-channel withdrawals and automated settlement and payment, and generates settlement vouchers. The ecosystem operation analysis module is used to collect plugin operation data and perform multi-dimensional analysis to generate ecosystem operation reports and optimization suggestions. The plugin lifecycle management module is used to implement plugin listing, updating, delisting, version control, and status monitoring; The permission management module is used to assign differentiated operation permissions to platform administrators, third-party developers, and ordinary users; The data storage layer is used to persistently store user data, plugin data, transaction data, revenue sharing data, settlement data, and operational data. The front-end interaction layer is used to provide exclusive operation entry points and interaction interfaces for different roles.

[0006] Furthermore, the revenue sharing rule configuration module supports multi-dimensional rule configuration, including setting differentiated revenue sharing ratios based on at least one of the following dimensions: plugin type, developer level, sales performance, plugin version, and ecosystem contribution. The revenue sharing ratio supports three modes: fixed ratio, tiered ratio, and fixed amount.

[0007] Furthermore, the plugin access review module includes an automatic review unit and a manual review unit. The automatic review unit automatically verifies the plugin installation package through a preset compatibility detection script and security scanning algorithm, and outputs a compatibility score and security risk level. The manual review unit receives the automatic review results, manually reviews the plugin's functional integrity and compliance, and generates review opinions and improvement suggestions.

[0008] Furthermore, the transaction data collected by the transaction data statistics module includes order number, user identifier, plugin identifier, transaction type, order amount, payment time, payment status, refund status, and channel information. The module supports real-time synchronization of transaction data, historical data backtracking, and abnormal transaction early warning functions.

[0009] Furthermore, the settlement and payment module includes a revenue sharing calculation unit, a withdrawal processing unit, and a voucher generation unit; the revenue sharing calculation unit uses the following formula: Revenue share = (Actual amount received from the order - Platform service fee) × Revenue share percentage; The platform service fee can be configured according to a fixed ratio or a tiered ratio. The withdrawal processing unit supports withdrawals from multiple channels such as bank cards and third-party payment accounts. It sets up withdrawal review processes and controls the arrival time of funds. The voucher generation unit automatically generates electronic settlement statements, payment vouchers, and tax-compliant invoices.

[0010] Furthermore, the operational data collected by the ecosystem operation analysis module includes plugin downloads, installations, activity levels, retention rates, user ratings, complaint volumes, and developer update frequency. Through data modeling, it generates plugin competitiveness rankings, ecosystem health scores, user demand profiles, and promotion strategy suggestions.

[0011] Furthermore, the data storage layer adopts a distributed database architecture, including relational databases and non-relational databases. The relational database is used to store structured data, while the non-relational database is used to store unstructured data such as plug-in installation packages and transaction logs. It supports encrypted data storage, backup, and disaster recovery functions.

[0012] Furthermore, the permission management module adopts the RBAC permission model, which assigns full permissions such as rule configuration, review management, and data viewing to platform administrators, permissions such as plugin upload, revenue sharing query, and withdrawal application to third-party developers, and permissions such as plugin browsing, purchase, use, and feedback to ordinary users, supporting refined permission configuration and dynamic adjustment.

[0013] Furthermore, the plugin lifecycle management module includes a version management unit, a status control unit, and a removal review unit. The version management unit supports uploading multiple versions of plugins, recording update logs, and configuring user-mandated / optional updates. The status control unit divides plugin status into five states: pending review, uploaded, pending update, removed, and banned, enabling automatic status transitions and manual intervention. The removal review unit is used to handle removal applications and forced removal operations in scenarios such as plugin violations and feature obsolescence.

[0014] This invention provides a system software ecosystem-based commercial operation and management platform that supports revenue sharing from third-party plugins.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example 1

[0018] like Figure 1-2 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a system software ecosystem commercial operation management platform that supports revenue sharing from third-party plugins. It includes a front-end interaction layer, a core service layer, a data storage layer, and a hardware deployment layer. Each layer works together to achieve full lifecycle management and ecosystem commercial operation of third-party plugins. The front-end interaction layer provides differentiated web and mobile interfaces for platform administrators, third-party developers, and ordinary users, supporting visualized operations for core functions such as plugin uploading, rule configuration, transaction operations, and data viewing. The core service layer is a collection of the platform's core functional modules, responsible for implementing core business logic such as plugin access approval, revenue sharing rule configuration, transaction data statistics, settlement and payment, and ecosystem operation analysis. The data storage layer adopts a distributed storage architecture, responsible for persistently storing various types of structured and unstructured data, ensuring data security and high availability. The hardware deployment layer consists of a cloud server cluster, load balancing equipment, and security protection equipment, providing the platform with a stable operating environment and scalable computing resources. The revenue sharing configuration module of the core service layer supports multi-dimensional rule configuration. Administrators can set differentiated revenue sharing rules according to dimensions such as plugin type, developer level, sales performance, and ecosystem contribution. It provides three revenue sharing modes: fixed percentage revenue sharing, tiered percentage revenue sharing, and fixed amount revenue sharing. It supports flexible adjustment of rules and configuration of effective time. New rules can be set to take effect immediately or at a specified time. Historical patterns can be traced and queried. Plugins and revenue sharing rules are automatically associated. After the plugin is approved, the administrator can manually assign or the system can automatically match the corresponding revenue sharing rules according to preset conditions. The plugin access review module in the core service layer standardizes the access process. Developers submit access applications through the front-end interaction layer, uploading materials such as plugin installation packages, functional description documents, and compatibility test reports. The system generates a unique access application number. The automatic review unit verifies the version compatibility of the plugin with the core system software and the standardization of interface calls using a preset compatibility detection script. It also uses virus scanning and vulnerability detection algorithms to identify malicious code and security vulnerabilities in the plugin, outputting a compatibility score and security risk level. Reviewers receive the automatic review results, manually review the plugin's functional completeness and compliance, fill in review comments, and provide clear improvement suggestions for plugins that fail the review. After the review is passed, the system automatically synchronizes the plugin information to the plugin lifecycle management module. For plugins that fail the review, the system pushes the review results and improvement suggestions to the developer, allowing the developer to modify and resubmit the application. The core service layer's transaction data statistics module collects real-time data by connecting to the payment interface of the core system software. This data includes order number, user identifier, plugin identifier, transaction type, order amount, payment time, payment status, refund status, and payment channel. Data standardization processing cleans, deduplicates, and standardizes the format of the collected transaction data to generate uniformly formatted transaction records, ensuring data accuracy. Data visualization provides administrators and developers with multi-dimensional statistical reports, including sales volume, order volume, refund rate, and user purchase profiles. It supports data export and printing, and features abnormal transaction alerts. By setting abnormal transaction thresholds, the system automatically sends alerts to administrators when transaction data triggers these thresholds, facilitating timely verification. The settlement and payment module of the core service layer automatically summarizes transaction data according to the settlement cycle, using formulas. Revenue share = (Actual amount received from the order - Platform service fee) × Revenue share percentage; The revenue share should be calculated for the developers; the platform service fee can be configured as a fixed percentage or a tiered percentage. Actual amount received = Order amount - Refund amount - Payment channel fees; Developers submit withdrawal requests through the front-end interaction layer, fill in withdrawal account information, and the system supports setting a minimum withdrawal amount. After the withdrawal request is submitted, it enters the review process. Once the administrator approves it, payment is triggered. The automated payment system connects to multiple banks and third-party payment platforms, supporting both batch and single payments. After the payment is completed, a payment success notification is automatically pushed to the developer, and electronic settlement statements, payment vouchers, and tax compliance invoices are automatically generated. Developers can view and download these documents online for easy financial accounting. The core service layer's ecosystem operation analysis module collects plugin operation data in real time, including downloads, installations, daily active users, monthly active users, retention rate, user rating scores, complaint volume, developer update frequency, and plugin iteration cycle. Through data modeling and algorithm analysis, it generates plugin competitiveness rankings, ecosystem health scores, and user demand profiles. Based on the data analysis results, it provides administrators with ecosystem optimization suggestions, such as strategies for promoting high-quality plugins, suggestions for eliminating low-activity plugins, and suggestions for adjusting developer incentive programs. It also provides developers with plugin optimization suggestions, such as directions for feature iteration and suggestions for handling user feedback hot issues. The module visually displays operational data trends through line charts, bar charts, pie charts, and other formats, allowing administrators and developers to view analysis reports from different dimensions as needed. The core service layer's access control module adopts a role-based access control model, dividing users into three core roles: platform administrators, third-party developers, and ordinary users. Different permissions are assigned to each role. Platform administrators have full permissions, including rule configuration, review management, data viewing, and plugin status control. Third-party developers have permissions such as plugin uploading, version updates, revenue sharing queries, withdrawal applications, and viewing user feedback. Ordinary users have permissions such as plugin browsing, purchasing, using, and submitting feedback. The module supports dynamic adjustment and revocation of permissions, records user permission operation logs for easy traceability and auditing, and ensures platform data security. The core service layer's user feedback processing module allows ordinary users to submit feedback information through the feedback entry point within plugins and the platform's front-end interaction layer. Feedback types include functional requirements, bug reports, usage questions, complaints, and suggestions. Users can upload screenshots, videos, and other attachments to provide supplementary explanations. The system automatically categorizes and tags feedback information, automatically routing it to the corresponding developer based on plugin identifiers. Developers can view feedback details, respond to processing opinions, and mark processing status. Users can view feedback processing progress in real time and receive notifications of processing status changes. Administrators can monitor feedback processing efficiency, remind and supervise overdue feedback, and the system automatically compiles statistics on frequently asked questions, providing data support for developer plugin optimization and administrator ecosystem management. Example 2

[0019] like Figure 1-2 As shown in the figure, this embodiment of the invention provides a system software ecosystem commercial operation and management platform that supports revenue sharing from third-party plugins. The data storage layer is designed with a distributed storage architecture, with a relational database for storing structured data and a non-relational database for storing unstructured data. Data encryption storage, access control, data backup and disaster recovery mechanisms are adopted to ensure data security and integrity. Data backup is performed regularly, and the backup data is stored on a remote server to support rapid recovery in case of failure. Redis caching technology is used to cache frequently accessed data to improve platform response speed. Database sharding and partitioning strategies are adopted to cope with data volume growth and ensure query and write performance. The hardware deployment layer adopts a cloud server cluster deployment, including application servers, database servers, cache servers, and file servers. It supports elastic scaling, dynamically adjusting server resources according to business volume, deploying load balancing equipment to distribute requests, avoid overloading a single server, and improve platform availability. It also deploys firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and intrusion prevention systems to defend against network attacks, malicious intrusions, and other security threats. DDoS protection services are used to ensure stable platform operation. A multi-region deployment strategy is adopted, with core nodes and backup nodes deployed in different locations to avoid single points of failure and ensure the platform is available 24 / 7.
