Automated Application Object Attribute Update for Game Server Mergers
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Manual region/server merger processes in online game trading platforms are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to data security risks, as they require developers to manually update and verify database information during server or region merges.
Innovation Solution
An automated method and apparatus for updating application object attributes, which establishes tasks via configuration, extracts and parses source and destination attribute information, finds and modifies application objects in a database, and writes the new information back, incorporating an audit mechanism for security.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual database operation is used for region/server merger, then data can be updated, but the process consumes significant time and labor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical database operations with an automated computer-based system. The system automatically retrieves merger information from the carrier, updates the database, and verifies data consistency without human intervention, thereby reducing processing time while maintaining data accuracy through systematic automation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by automatically performing the entire merger process. The computer system autonomously obtains merger information, executes database updates, and conducts verification, eliminating the need for manual operator intervention and significantly reducing the time required for region/server mergers.
2Ease of manufacture
If manual database operation is used for region/server merger, then data can be updated, but data security risks increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual database operations with automated computer-based processing. This substitution eliminates human errors and security vulnerabilities associated with manual intervention while maintaining operational simplicity through systematic automation. The automated system follows predetermined protocols for data retrieval, update, and verification.
Solution Approach 2:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms through automatic verification of merger information. After updating the database, the system verifies the updated data to ensure accuracy and consistency, providing a closed-loop control that enhances data security while maintaining operational simplicity.
3Productivity
If automated updating is implemented, then processing efficiency improves, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a multi-functional computer-based system that handles information retrieval, database updating, and verification within a single integrated platform. This universal system improves processing efficiency by consolidating multiple functions while managing complexity through unified architecture rather than separate discrete systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically retrieving merger information from the carrier before executing database updates. This preparatory step streamlines the overall process, improving efficiency by having data ready in advance while organizing system complexity through a structured sequence of predetermined operations.
Data Source
AI summary
Methods, apparatus and application platforms for updating application object attribute are provided herein. In an exemplary method, a task for updating an attribute of an application object corresponding to an application can be established via task configuration, to obtain task configuration information of the task and form a task list. The task can be extracted from the task list. The task configuration information can be parsed, to obtain source attribute information and destination attribute information of the application. The application object can be found in a database, according to the source attribute information of the application. Current attribute information of the application object can be modified into the destination attribute information. After the modifying, the destination attribute information can be written into the database as the current attribute information of the application object.
