1Quantity of substance
If existing data transmission mode is used for high-volume data backup, then data transmission volume increases, but message channel congestion occurs and system stability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the data transmission process into multiple small packets with sequence numbers, rather than transmitting large volumes of data as a single stream. This segmentation allows the message channel to handle individual small packets efficiently while maintaining system stability, even when total data volume is large.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism (message distribution table and sequence number tracking) between the message channel and data channel. The message channel only transmits control messages with sequence numbers, while the actual data transmission is coordinated through the intermediary table, preventing message channel congestion.
2Productivity
If existing data transmission mode is used for frequent data exchange, then data backup capability improves, but data packet dropout and incomplete transmission occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the receiving end sends acknowledgments for received packets, and the transmitting end tracks which packets have been successfully received using the message distribution table. This feedback ensures that incomplete transmissions are detected and retransmitted, guaranteeing data completeness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring the message distribution table with expected packet sequences and establishing sequence number tracking before data transmission begins. This preparation enables immediate detection of missing packets and facilitates quick recovery without compromising data completeness.
3Reliability
If data validation and conversion are performed during transmission, then data security improves, but transmission complexity and processing time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts complex data validation and conversion operations from the transmission path itself, performing them separately before data enters the transmission system and after data is received. The transmission channel only handles simple packet forwarding with sequence numbers, reducing transmission processing complexity while maintaining data security through separate validation stages.

AI summary
The present invention discloses a data acquisition method, device and system. The data acquisition method includes: receiving, by a second network management server corresponding to a second network element, a first message transmitted by a first network management server corresponding to a first network element, where the first message carries a first event number; searching a pre-configured message distribution table by the second network management server, to acquire a first message processing method corresponding to the first event number, where the message distribution table is configured to record various processes of data transmission and message processing methods required to be executed in the various processes, as well as a message receiver in a next process and an event number required to be processed by the message receiver; and, the first message processing method customizes a transmission method of acquiring data from other network elements by the second network management server; and executing the first message processing method by the second network management server, to request and acquire data from network management servers of the other network elements.
