[0028] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", and the like in the specification and claims of the present disclosure and the above-described accompanying drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily have to be used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0029] The method embodiments provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be executed in a network device or a similar computing device. Taking an example of running on a network device, FIG. 1 is a hardware structure block diagram of a network device of a data access processing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the network device can include one or more (only one is shown in FIG. 1) processors 102 (the processor 102 can include but is not limited to a processing device such as a microprocessor MCU or programmable logic device) and a memory 104 for storing data, wherein the network device can further include a transmission device 106 for communication function and an input and output device 108. Those skilled in the art can understand that the structure shown in FIG. 1 is only schematic, which does not limit the structure of the network device. For example, the network device can further include more or fewer components than those shown in FIG. 1, or have a different configuration from that shown in FIG. 1.

[0030] The memory 104 can be used to store computer programs, such as software programs of application software and modules, such as a computer program corresponding to the data access processing method in the embodiments of the present disclosure. The processor 102 can execute various functions of the application and the single board matching by running the computer program stored in the memory 104, that is, implement the method described above. The memory 104 can include a high-speed random access memory, and can also include a non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic storage devices, flash memories, or other non-volatile solid-state memories. In some examples, the memory 104 can further include a memory remotely arranged with respect to the processor 102, and the remote memory can be connected to the network device through a network. Examples of the network include, but are not limited to, the Internet, an intranet, a local area network, a mobile communication network, and a combination thereof.

[0031] The transmission device 106 is used to receive or send data via a network. The specific examples of the network can include a wireless network provided by a communication provider of the network device. In one example, the transmission device 106 includes a network adapter (NIC), which can be connected to other network devices through a base station so as to communicate with the Internet. In one example, the transmission device 106 can be a radio frequency (RF) module, which is used to communicate with the Internet in a wireless manner.

[0032] In the present embodiment, a data access processing method running on the network device is provided. FIG. 2 is a flowchart I of the data access processing method according to the embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, the flow includes the following steps:

[0033] In step S202, a general data access interface is provided for the network service processing unit, wherein the general data access interface is based on one or a group of general interfaces defined according to a plurality of operation types, and is used for the network service processing unit to call and perform data access based on service requirements.

[0034] In step S204, when a new service is introduced, the general data access interface is extended in interface capability, and the extended general data access interface is used for the network service processing unit to call and perform data access of the new service.

[0035] Through the above steps S202 to S204, the problem that the interface and service function are strongly coupled and bound when the data processing network element provides the data access interface to the outside in the related art can be solved. The general interface based on the definition of a plurality of operation types is adopted, the new service does not need to be aware of the service purpose, and the interface adaptation needs to be performed for the service. The network service processing unit can perform data access of the new service based on the general data access interface after the interface capability is extended.

[0036] FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a 6G network architecture according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 3, including:

[0037] The network control unit is the network control center, responsible for driving tasks, completing the coordination of connection + computing power + intelligence + perception, etc.

[0038] The network data processing unit provides basic capabilities for data services, is responsible for unified storage, management, and access of data, and is the infrastructure of the data plane.

[0039] The network intelligence unit provides standard AI capabilities, assists in realizing autonomous management and intelligent services of the network, and provides flexible and customized AIaaS to applications.

[0040] The above NCU and NIU are network service processing units in the present embodiment.

[0041] The network assistance unit is responsible for the registration and discovery of other network units in the autonomous domain, responsible for the registration and interconnection of the network, and plays the role of external service gateway in the autonomous domain.

[0042] FIG. 4 is a functional diagram of a network data processing unit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 4, the NDU is responsible for storing various types of data relied on by the network units such as the 6G core network NCU, NIU, and NAU, such as user operation data, user core data, network data, and computing power data, providing basic capabilities for data services, responsible for unified storage, management, and access of data, and is the data-centric network infrastructure of 6G. The NDU provides various data access interfaces for the NCU, NIU, and NAU to read / write / subscribe to structured data (such as user subscription data and service policy data) and unstructured data in the NDU.

[0043] In the present embodiment, the network data processing unit can more efficiently respond to data access requests from various service processing units, whether the requests are read, write, subscribe, or modify data, all of which can be processed through a unified interface, greatly improving the flexibility and efficiency of data access. This mechanism is particularly suitable for large-scale, multi-service network environments such as cloud computing platforms and Internet of Things systems, which can effectively reduce the complexity of data access and improve the overall performance of the system.

[0044] In an embodiment, the method further comprises: receiving, by the general data access interface, a data access request sent by the network service processing unit, the data access request carrying data parameters and an operation type requested to be accessed; and sending, by the general data access interface, a data access response to the network service processing unit. This bidirectional communication mechanism ensures the accuracy and real-time performance of data access, and the network data processing unit can quickly locate and return the required data or perform corresponding data operations, such as data writing, subscription confirmation, modification result feedback, and the like, according to the specific needs of the service processing unit, thereby supporting more complex and dynamic network service scenarios, such as real-time data analysis and intelligent decision support.

[0045] Further, in the case where the operation type is reading data or writing data, the data access response carries data corresponding to the access data parameters; in the case where the operation type is subscription, the data access response carries a subscription success message; and in the case where the operation type is modification, the data access response carries a modification operation result. The modification in this embodiment can be adding, replacing, deleting, and the like. This data response mechanism based on the operation type can ensure that the network service processing unit obtains accurate data feedback, whether reading data, writing data, subscribing to data changes, or performing data adding, replacing, or deleting operations, and can obtain timely result feedback, thereby effectively supporting the continuity of services and the real-time performance of data.

[0046] In the case where the operation type is reading data or writing data, the data parameters include at least one of the following: a service data group name, a sub-data name associated with the service data group name, and a reading condition, and the general data access interface returns one of the following to the network service processing unit: data under the service data group name, data under the sub-data name associated with the service data group name, and data satisfying the reading condition. This refined data parameter mechanism enables the network data processing unit to more accurately locate and process data, thereby supporting more complex data query and writing requirements, such as quickly locating and returning data under specific conditions or writing data under specific data groups in big data analysis and personalized recommendation scenarios, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of data processing.

[0047] In the case where the operation type is subscription, the network service processing unit is notified of data that has changed. This real-time data change notification mechanism can ensure that the network service processing unit obtains the latest state of data in a timely manner, thereby providing timely data updates for service scenarios that require real-time monitoring of data changes, such as stock trading and logistics tracking, and supporting the real-time performance of services and the accuracy of decisions.

[0048] In the case of the operation type being modification, the data parameter comprises: a sub-data name associated with a service data group name, a target value to be modified, and a modification operation condition; and in the case of satisfying the modification operation condition, the value of the data under the sub-data name is modified to the target value. This conditional modification operation mechanism can ensure the accuracy and security of the data, and can provide safer and more controllable data operations for business scenarios that require data modification according to specific conditions, such as user permission management, data auditing, and the like, thereby supporting the compliance and security requirements of the business.

[0049] Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the functional modules and connection relationships of data access according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The network data processing unit, the network service processing unit (NCU, NIU, etc.), and the network assistance unit have the functional modules and connection relationships as shown in Fig. 5.

[0050] The network data processing unit comprises a data processing interface module, an interface capability publishing module, a data orchestration and dynamic loading module, and a data storage module.

[0059] The data access interface capability receiving module is configured to send a subscription request for data access interface capability, receive a change notification of the data access interface capability, and refresh the cached interface capability.

[0060] The general data access of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be used by other network service processing units to flexibly read and modify the data published by the NDU according to service demands. When a new service is introduced, the network data processing unit does not need to perceive the service purpose and does not need to make interface adaptation for the service. Specifically, the general data access interface defined by the NDU has the following characteristics:

[0061] The general data access interface defined by the NDU has the following characteristics: the general data access interface can be a group of general interfaces defined according to operation types (reading, subscription, adding, modifying, deleting, etc.); or it can be a general interface carrying operation types (reading, subscription, adding, modifying, deleting, etc.). When the network data processing unit supports new service data, the interface does not need to be changed. The general data access interface can also contain a data subscription identifier (i.e. whether to synchronize the read data when reading data). After the NDU is powered on or the general interface is extended (for example, the read and write interfaces are enhanced in function), the network data processing unit can automatically publish the latest interface capability to other network service processing units. The general data access interface can be in the form of json or other forms.

[0062] When a new service is introduced into the network, the NDU and other network service processing units agree on the business data group name and the detailed data structure form of each service in the NDU through means such as service specification, which can be as follows but is not limited to:

[0063] The business data group name;

[0064] The associated sub-data structure definition under the business data group;

[0065] The data type definition of the sub-data (including but not limited to data name, data type, data length, etc. Among them, the data type can be a transparent data type, or a string type, a Boolean type, etc.);

[0066] The other network service processing unit indicates the data range to be read (corresponding to the data parameter described above) in the request parameter when calling the general data access interface to read user data, and the request parameter contains all or part of the following data (but not limited to):

[0067] The service data group name(s);

[0068] The service data group name(s) and the associated sub-data name(s);

[0069] The read condition.

[0070] The NDU returns all the data associated with the service data group of the user according to the requested data range, or the data under the specified sub-data, or the data meeting the query condition in the read response. After obtaining the data returned by the NDU, the other network service processing unit analyzes the data meaning by itself and performs the next service processing. Further, when calling the general data access interface of the NDU to modify data, the other network service processing unit indicates the data range to be read in the request parameter, and the request parameter contains all or part of the following data (but not limited to):

[0071] The service data group name(s) and the associated sub-data name(s) and the target value to be modified;

[0072] The operation type (such as addition, replacement, deletion, etc.);

[0073] The operation condition (such as the source data value is equal to a certain value, and then the replacement or deletion operation is performed);

[0074] The NDU returns the modification result in the modification response.

[0075] The other network service processing unit performs the next service processing according to the modification result returned by the NDU.

[0076] The NDU defines a general data access interface for calling by the other service processing unit.

[0077] The data access general interface defined by the NDU is respectively used for user-level data reading, data modification, data subscription and the like, and an example of the data access general interface is shown in Table 1.

[0078] Table 1

[0079] When the network introduces a new service, the NDU and the other network service processing unit (NCU, NIU, etc.) agree on the service data group name of each service in the NDU and the detailed data structure form through the means such as formulating service specifications.

[0080] The following describes the service data group and its detailed data structure.

[0081] The service data group accessible by the data access general interface is shown in Table 2.

[0082] Table 2

[0083] The data structure of the X1 service data group attribute (X1Paratype) is shown in Table 3.

[0084] Table 3

[0085] The definition of the data structure of the X2 service data group attribute (X2Paratype) is shown in Table 4.

[0086] Table 4

[0087] The general data access interface call, Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of the call flow of the general data access interface, as shown in Fig. 6, includes:

[0088] Step S600, the external (such as a terminal) initiates a service to the service processing module of the network service processing unit (NCU, NIU, etc.).

[0089] Step S601, the service processing module of the network service processing unit (NCU, NIU, etc.) initiates a service data reading / modification request to the data interface call module of the unit according to the service requirement.

[0090] Step S602, the data interface call module of the network service processing unit (NCU, NIU, etc.) calls the general data access interface provided by the NDU, initiates a request to the network data processing unit (NDU), and carries the service data group and other parameters in the request to read / modify the data corresponding to the service data group.

[0091] Step S603, the data processing interface module of the network data processing unit (NDU) initiates a reading / modification request to the data storage module of the unit to read or modify the locally stored data.

[0092] Steps S604-S606, return the response data.

[0093] In the above step S602, the call of the general data access interface assumes that the NCU needs to read the X1Para, X2Para, X9Para, X16Para and other parameter data of the user in the terminal registration process, and then the NCU calls the data reading general interface provided by the NDU.

[0094] After the data reading is completed, the NCU synchronously calls the general data subscription interface provided by the NDU to subscribe to the data change notification of the above data.

[0095] In an embodiment, the above method further includes: when a new service is introduced, negotiating a service specification of the new service with a network service processing unit, wherein the service specification includes a data group name and a data structure form. This service specification negotiation mechanism can ensure that the data access requirements of the new service are fully met, and for scenarios that require the rapid introduction of new services, such as new service online, business model innovation, etc., it can provide fast and flexible data access support to speed up the deployment and online of new services.

[0096] FIG. 7 is a flowchart of a data access processing method according to an optional embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 7, step S204 can specifically include:

[0097] Step S702: obtaining new service data input based on a service specification of a new service;

[0098] Step S704: extending the interface capability of the general data access interface according to the data group name and the data structure form, and the new service data.

[0099] Through the interface capability dynamic extension mechanism of steps S702 and S704, the system can quickly adapt to the introduction of new services without the need for large-scale reconstruction of existing interfaces, reducing the complexity of system maintenance and upgrading. For network service scenarios that require continuous innovation and optimization, such as Internet platforms, intelligent applications, etc., it can provide continuous improvement of data access capability to support the continuous development and optimization of services.

[0100] Further, the interface capability extension of the general data access interface according to the data group name and the data structure form, and the new service data includes: generating a data dictionary of the general data access interface according to the data group name and the data structure form, and the new service data by arranging the data, generating the updated interface capability according to the data group name and the data structure form; and storing the new service data based on the data dictionary according to the loaded instruction. This interface capability extension mechanism based on the data dictionary can ensure accurate storage and efficient access of new service data, and for business scenarios that need to process a large amount of complex data, such as big data analysis, artificial intelligence applications, etc., it can provide more efficient and accurate data access support to improve the efficiency and accuracy of data processing.

[0101] In the present embodiment, the data arrangement and loading effect, when a new service is introduced, the NDU can generate the NDU data dictionary and dynamically load the data dictionary to update and publish the interface capability by only arranging the data without going through function development and product upgrade. The specific scheme and steps are as follows:

[0102] When the network introduces a new service, the operation and maintenance personnel input the data of the new service in the NDU data arrangement module according to the service data group name and the data structure form agreed in the service specification, click to execute, and the NDU generates the latest NDU interface capability and the NDU data dictionary (the database table definition of the NDU, including but not limited to the contents of the properties of the field name, data type, primary key, and the like).

[0103] The operation and maintenance personnel execute the loading command provided by the NDU to load the new NDU data dictionary. The NDU dynamically takes effect on the NDU data dictionary, and supports the storage of the new service data.

[0104] The operation and maintenance personnel continue to call the execution command provided by the network data processing unit (NDU) to load the new NDU interface capability, and the interface capability contains the information of the service data group supported by the NDU.

[0105] After the loading is successful, the NDU publishes the latest NDU data interface capability to the network assistance unit (NAU), and the NAU notifies the latest interface capability to the NCU / NIU having a subscription relationship. After the NCU / NIU completes the development and upgrade deployment of the new function, the NDU general data access interface can be called to read and write the new service data in the NDU.

[0106] FIG. 8 is a flow diagram of dynamic arrangement and loading taking effect of the NDU data dictionary according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 8, the dynamic arrangement and loading taking effect of the data dictionary specifically includes:

[0107] Step S801, when the network introduces a new service, the service planning personnel define the NDU data parameters (service data group name, detailed data structure attribute, and the like) of the new service according to the service demand.

[0108] Step S802, the operation and maintenance personnel input the data parameters of the new service, call the data arrangement instruction provided by the network data processing unit, and generate the data dictionary (the database table definition of the NDU, such as the contents of the properties of the field name, data type, primary key, and the like).

[0109] Step S803, the operation and maintenance personnel call the interface provided by the network data processing unit to load and take effect on the new data dictionary.

[0110] Step S804, the data arrangement and dynamic loading module of the network data processing unit notifies the data storage module to dynamically load and take effect on the data dictionary.

[0111] Step S805, the operation and maintenance personnel add the service data group of the new service to the interface capability, and execute the publishing instruction.

[0112] Step S806, the data access interface capability publishing module of the network data processing unit updates the interface capability to the network auxiliary unit.

[0113] Step S807, the network auxiliary unit sends an interface capability change notification to other network processing units with a subscription relationship, completing interface capability publishing.

[0114] Further, the above method further includes publishing the updated interface capability to the network auxiliary unit, so that the network auxiliary unit notifies the network service processing unit subscribed to the interface capability change of the updated interface capability. This interface capability change publishing and notification mechanism can ensure that the network service processing unit obtains the latest interface capability information in a timely manner, and can provide timely and accurate capability updates for business scenarios that require data access capabilities, such as service orchestration and business process automation, to support continuous optimization and innovation of the business.

[0115] Further, the above data structure form at least includes: the data structure and data type under the business data group name, the data structure and data type under the sub-data name associated with the business data group name. This detailed data structure definition can ensure the accuracy and security of data access, and can provide safer and more controllable data access support for business scenarios that require complex data structure processing, such as financial transactions and medical information management, to meet the compliance and security requirements of the business.

[0116] The automatic publishing mechanism of the data access interface capability enables other network processing units to dynamically obtain the interface capability published by the NDU. The specific scheme and steps are as follows:

[0117] After the network service processing unit (NCU, NIU, etc.) is powered on, it subscribes to the interface capability change notification of the general data access interface of the NDU to the network auxiliary unit (NAU) to obtain the latest interface capability. The subscription interface can be in json or other forms.

[0118] The interface capability includes all or part (but not limited to) of the following data:

[0119] The name of the interface, the version number of the interface, the operation type allowed by the interface, the function label supported by the interface, etc.

[0120] The data range (business data group, etc.) that the interface can operate, the operation permission (such as reading, modifying, etc.) of the data, etc.

[0121] The network data processing unit (NDU) publishes the latest NDU interface capability to the network auxiliary unit (NAU). The publishing interface can be in json or other forms.

[0122] The publishing scenarios include but are not limited to the following:

[0123] After the NDU is powered on, the interface capability of the general data access interface is registered to the NAU.

[0124] After the general data access interface is functionally extended, the interface capability of the NDU is updated to the NAU (including but not limited to interface version, interface function label and the like).

[0125] After the NDU loads new service data, causing the supported service capability to change, the interface capability is updated to the NAU (including new service data group and the like).

[0126] The network assistance unit (NAU) initiates an NDU interface capability change notification request to a network service processing unit (NCU, NIU and the like) having a subscription relationship, to complete NDU interface capability change publishing. The change notification interface can be in json or other forms.

[0127] The network service processing unit (NCU, NIU and the like) updates the locally cached NDU interface capability.
