Distributed Storage Network Traffic Flow Control via Business Type Priority
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing distributed storage systems face challenges in accurately controlling network bandwidth during peak business hours, as not all data from a client requires urgent processing, leading to low accuracy in bandwidth control using client IP priority.
Innovation Solution
A network traffic flow control method that acquires a transmission link for target data based on business type priority, configures a first priority parameter for the transmission link, and sets a second priority parameter for the data to allocate network bandwidth accordingly, enhancing bandwidth control accuracy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If network bandwidth control is implemented using client IP priority, then bandwidth allocation can be performed, but the accuracy of traffic flow bandwidth control deteriorates because not all data from the same client requires urgent processing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the single IP-level priority into multiple data packet-level priorities. Each data packet is assigned a priority parameter based on its business type, allowing fine-grained control of bandwidth allocation. This segmentation enables accurate differentiation between urgent and non-urgent data from the same client, thereby improving bandwidth control accuracy without excessive complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by assigning different priority parameters to different data packets based on their specific business types. Instead of uniform IP-level priority, each data packet receives a localized priority assignment reflecting its actual urgency and business requirements. This enables precise bandwidth control tailored to individual data characteristics while maintaining manageable system complexity.
2Ease of operation
If all data from a client is treated with the same priority, then implementation is simple, but the accuracy of traffic flow control deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the uniform client-level priority into segmented data packet-level priorities. Each data packet is independently assigned a priority parameter based on its business type, enabling differentiated bandwidth control. This segmentation maintains operational simplicity through automated assignment while dramatically improving bandwidth control accuracy by recognizing different urgency levels within the same client's data.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the priority parameter from a static IP-level attribute to a dynamic data packet-level attribute. By introducing variable priority parameters that change based on business type, the system achieves both ease of operation (through automated parameter assignment) and high accuracy (through differentiated priority levels for different data types).

AI summary
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a network traffic flow control method and apparatus based on a distributed storage system, an electrical device, and a storage medium. The method includes: acquiring a transmission link for transmitting target data in response to a first data server in the distributed storage system receiving a transmission request for the target data; configuring a first priority parameter for the transmission link by the first data server according to the priority information of the business type to which the target data belongs; and in response to transmitting the target data through the transmission link, configuring a second priority parameter for the target data by the first data server according to the first priority parameter of the transmission link, so as to enable a data transmission device to allocate a network bandwidth to the target data according to the second priority parameter.
