Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of computer technologies, and in particular, to the field of internet, and in particular, to a load balancing method, apparatus, and system.

Background

With the development of computer technology, distributed technology is widely applied to enterprise production environments. In distributed technologies, a distributed Message Queue (MQ) service is generally utilized to achieve stable, reliable, and efficient transfer and exchange of data between different services. Generally, the distributed message queue service needs to be completed by a plurality of servers to realize the relay of information, however, the number of clients is much larger than that of the servers, and thus, the information processed by the servers needs to be distributed to realize load balancing.

The existing load balancing method usually processes the connection request of the client by using a method of distributing message routing, however, the method is usually deployed across a machine room and a data center, resulting in connection delay; in addition, this approach can result in clients being jittered by reassigning message routes in the event that a connection is broken or a new connection is added, resulting in less stability.

Thestorage server 103 may be configured to store the load balancing result sent by theload balancing server 101, and thestorage server 103 may provide a distributed application coordination service.

Theservers 106, 107, 108 in theserver cluster 105 may be message processing servers that provide message processing services. The message processing server may be responsible for processing messages of a plurality of subjects, and each message processing server may be constituted by a plurality of servers, for example, may be constituted by a master server and a slave server. The master server may perform operations such as reading and writing on messages sent by theterminal devices 110, 111, and 112, and the slave server may be used to synchronize data in the master server or read synchronized data when the master server fails. Here, each message processing server may be composed of one master server and any number of slave servers, and is not limited herein. In addition, one or more of theservers 106, 107, and 108 may be used as a preset server, the preset server may also monitor the load balancing result stored in thestorage server 103, and when the update of the load balancing result stored in thestorage server 103 is monitored, a load result obtaining request may be sent to thestorage server 103 through thenetwork 104, so as to obtain the current load balancing result.

Theterminal devices 110, 111, 112 may be various electronic devices having a display screen and supporting web browsing, including but not limited to smart phones, tablet computers, laptop portable computers, desktop computers, and the like.

It should be noted that the load balancing method provided in the embodiment of the present application is generally executed by theload balancing server 101, and accordingly, the load balancing apparatus is generally disposed in theload balancing server 101.

It should be understood that the number of terminal devices, networks, and servers in fig. 1 is merely illustrative. There may be any number of load balancing servers, storage servers, server clusters, terminal devices, and networks, and any number of servers may be included in a server cluster.

With continued reference to fig. 2, aflow 200 of one embodiment of a load balancing method according to the present application is shown. The load balancing method comprises the following steps:

step 201, for each server in the server cluster, determining a topic of a message which the server is responsible for processing, and determining an identifier of a client which has established a connection with the server and has subscribed to the message of the topic, so as to generate at least one identifier list which corresponds to the server and is divided according to the topic.

In this embodiment, an electronic device (e.g., theload balancing server 101 shown in fig. 1) on which the load balancing method operates may obtain client information of a client that has established a connection with at least one server in a server cluster (e.g., theserver cluster 105 shown in fig. 1) from a database for storing client-side information. The database may be a local database of the electronic device, or may be a database connected to the electronic device and installed on another device. The client information may include an IP (Internet Protocol) address of the client, a client name, a client identifier (for example, a character string for uniquely identifying the client, which is formed by arbitrary characters), a topic (topic) of a message subscribed by the client, and the like. In practice, each topic may be used to indicate a type of message, e.g., a page view log, a click log, etc., may exist in the form of a topic.

In this embodiment, the electronic device may store server information of each server in the server cluster in advance, where the server information may include a server identifier (for example, a character string composed of a server name and a serial number), an IP address of the server, a subject of a message handled by the server, and the like. For each server in the server cluster, the electronic device may determine, based on the acquired client information, a topic of a message that the server is responsible for processing, and determine an identifier of a client that has established a connection with the server and has subscribed to the message of the topic, so as to generate at least one identifier list that corresponds to the server and is divided by topic.

As an example, for a certain server in the above server cluster, the topic of the message that the server is responsible for processing contains a first topic and a second topic. The clients which are connected with the server and subscribe the message of the first theme are respectively a first client, a second client and a third client, and the clients which are connected with the server and subscribe the message of the second theme are respectively a third client, a fourth client and a fifth client. The electronic device may generate two identification lists (a first identification list and a second identification list, respectively) corresponding to the server and divided according to the first theme and the second theme. The first identifier list corresponding to the first theme may include identifiers of three clients, namely, a first client, a second client, and a third client, and the second identifier list corresponding to the second theme may include identifiers of three clients, namely, a third client, a fourth client, and a fifth client.

It should be noted that each generated identification list corresponding to the server may have a server identification of the server and a corresponding topic identification, the topic identification may be used to indicate and distinguish topics, and each topic identification may be a character string formed by any character. Taking the above example as an example, the first identification list may have a server identification of the server and a topic identification for indicating the first topic, and the second identification list may have a server identification of the server and a topic identification for indicating the second topic.

Step 202, for each generated identification list, extracting a preset identification list corresponding to the identification list, in response to determining that the identification list is not matched with the preset identification list, updating the identification list based on the preset identification list, and analyzing the IP address of the client indicated by the identification in the updated identification list to generate a target identification set.

In this embodiment, for the processing of each generated identification list, further reference may be made to fig. 3, where fig. 3 is an exploded flowchart of theabove step 202. In fig. 3, the control step is broken down into 3 sub-steps as follows:step 2021,step 2022 andstep 2023.

Atstep 2021, for each generated identifier list, a preset identifier list corresponding to the identifier list is extracted.

In this embodiment, for each generated identifier list, the electronic device may first extract a preset identifier list corresponding to the identifier list, where the preset identifier list corresponding to the identifier list may be a preset identifier list with the same server identifier and the same subject identifier. It should be noted that the electronic device may periodically execute the load balancingmethod including steps 201 to 203, and the preset identifier list may be an identifier list generated by the electronic device in the last execution of the load balancing method. Before the electronic device executes the load balancing method for the first time, each client subscribing to a message of a certain topic may establish a connection with all servers in the server cluster responsible for processing the message of the topic, and therefore, before the load balancing method is executed for the first time, an initial preset identifier list, which is corresponding to each server and divided by the topic, may be established and stored in the electronic device in advance based on a connection condition between the client and the server.

In response to determining that the list of identifications does not match the list of preset identifications,step 2022 updates the list of identifications based on the list of preset identifications.

In this embodiment, after the preset identifier list is extracted, the electronic device may first perform a comparison between the identifier list and the preset identifier list to determine whether the identifier list matches with the preset identifier list. Specifically, the electronic device may determine whether each identifier described in the identifier list is described in the preset identifier list, determine whether the number of identifiers described in the identifier list is identical to the number of identifiers described in the preset identifier list if the identifier list is described in the preset identifier list, and determine that the identifier list matches the preset identifier list if the number of identifiers is identical to the number of identifiers described in the preset identifier list. If there is an identifier not listed in the preset identifier list in the identifier list, or if the number of identifiers listed in the identifier list does not match the number of identifiers listed in the preset identifier list, it can be determined that the identifier list does not match the preset identifier list. As an example, the identifiers described in the identifier list are sequentially identifier "a", identifier "B" and identifier "C", and if the identifiers described in the preset identifier list are sequentially identifier "C", identifier "B" and identifier "a", it may be determined that the identifier list matches the preset identifier list; if the identifiers described in the preset identifier list are the identifier "a", the identifier "B", the identifier "C", and the identifier "D" in this order, it can be determined that the identifier list does not match the preset identifier list.

In this embodiment, in response to determining that the identifier list does not match the preset identifier list, the electronic device may update the identifier list based on the preset identifier list in various updating manners. As an example, in response to determining that the identifier list does not match the preset identifier list, the electronic device may first delete identifiers in the preset identifier list that are not listed in the identifier list; then, the identifiers which are not recorded in the preset identifier list in the identifier list can be extracted; and then, inserting the extracted identifications into the preset identification list one by one. As an example, the identifiers recorded in the identifier list are sequentially an identifier "a", an identifier "B", an identifier "D", an identifier "E", and an identifier "F"; the identifiers described in the preset identifier list corresponding to the identifier list are the identifier "a", the identifier "B", the identifier "C", and the identifier "D" in this order. The electronic device may delete the identifier "C" in the preset identifier list first; then, extracting the mark 'E' and the mark 'F' which are not recorded in the preset mark list in the mark list; then, the mark "E" is inserted into the position of the original mark "C" in the preset mark list, and the mark "F" is inserted behind the mark "D" in the preset mark list.

It should be noted that, after updating the identifier list, the electronic device may store the updated identifier list in a cache, so as to extract the stored identifier list as a preset list in a process of next executing the load balancing method.

Step 2023, the IP address of the client indicated by the identifier in the updated identifier list is resolved to generate a target identifier set.

In this embodiment, the electronic device may first extract, from the client information obtained instep 201, an updated IP address of the client indicated by each identifier in the identifier list. Then, the electronic device may parse the extracted IP address of the client, and determine a target identifier in the identifier list according to a parsing result to generate a target identifier set. It should be noted that, after each identification list is processed, a corresponding target identification set may be generated, so that a plurality of target identification sets may be obtained.

In this embodiment, the electronic device may analyze the extracted IP address of the client in various analysis manners, and determine the target identifier in the identifier list according to an analysis result to generate a target identifier set. As an example, after obtaining the updated identifier list and extracting the IP addresses of the clients indicated by the identifiers in the identifier list, the electronic device may first parse the extracted IP addresses of the clients to determine the network segments corresponding to the IP addresses of the clients. Then, the determined network segments can be matched with the preset network segments corresponding to the identifier list, the identifiers of the clients corresponding to the network segments matched with the preset network segments in the specified number and the identifiers of the clients corresponding to the network segments unmatched with the preset network segments in the specified number are respectively extracted, and the extracted identifiers of the clients are used as target identifiers to be classified into a target identifier set. It should be noted that each server in the server cluster may correspond to a preset network segment, and the electronic device may store a preset mapping table between the server and the preset network segment, and determine the preset network segment corresponding to the identifier list based on the mapping table.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, in response to determining that the identifier list does not match the preset identifier list, the electronic device may first extract the same identifier in the identifier list and the preset identifier list and an order of the same identifier in the preset identifier list, where the same identifier may be an identifier recorded in both the identifier list and the preset identifier list; then, the electronic device may store the same identifier in the order to a temporary identifier list established in advance; then, the identifiers in the identifier list except the same identifier can be inserted into the temporary identifier list; finally, the list of identifications may be replaced with the temporary list of identifications to update the list of identifications. As an example, the identifiers recorded in the identifier list are sequentially an identifier "a", an identifier "B", an identifier "D", an identifier "E", and an identifier "F"; the identifiers described in the preset identifier list corresponding to the identifier list are the identifier "a", the identifier "B", the identifier "C", and the identifier "D" in this order. The electronic device may first extract the same identifier (identifier "a", identifier "B", and identifier "D") in the identifier list and the preset identifier list and the order of the same identifier in the preset identifier list (i.e., 1, 2, and 4, respectively). Then, the extracted identifier "a" may be stored at a position of temporary identifier list order 1, the extracted identifier "B" may be stored at a position of temporary identifier list order 2, and the extracted identifier "D" may be stored at a position of temporary identifier list order 4. Then, the electronic device may extract identifiers (i.e., identifier "E" and identifier "F") other than the same identifier in the identifier list, insert identifier "E" into the position with the order of 3 in the temporary identifier list, and insert identifier "F" into the position with the order of 5 in the temporary identifier list. Finally, the electronic device may replace the identifier list with the temporary identifier list to update the identifier list.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, after obtaining the updated identification list, the electronic device may first extract, from the stored server information, an IP address of a server in the server cluster corresponding to the identification list. In practice, the electronic device may read the server identifier carried in the identifier list, and query the IP address of the server from the stored server information based on the server identifier. Then, the electronic device may determine the extracted IP address of the server as a target IP address, and determine whether the extracted IP address of each client and the target IP address correspond to the same machine room identifier based on a preset mapping table of IP addresses and machine room identifiers. Then, the electronic device may determine an IP address of the same machine room identifier as the target IP address in the extracted IP addresses of the clients, and determine an identifier of the client corresponding to the determined IP address as a first identifier; meanwhile, the electronic device may determine, as the second identifier, an identifier of the client whose IP and the target IP address correspond to different machine room identifiers. Then, the electronic device may select a preset number (e.g., 1, 2, etc.) of first identifiers and a preset number of second identifiers in the identifier list, and determine the selected first identifiers and the selected second identifiers as target identifiers to be included in a target identifier set matching the identifier list.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, after obtaining the updated identifier list, the electronic device may first determine the number of times of grouping that matches each identifier in the identifier list. The number of times of putting into the set matched with each identifier may be a number indicating a target identifier set into which the identifier is put. Each client may subscribe to messages of multiple topics, and the subscribed messages of multiple topics may be processed by multiple servers, so that the client may be connected to multiple servers, and each server in the server cluster may correspond to multiple identification lists divided by topics, and each identification list may correspond to one target identification set, so that the identification of the client may be categorized as a target identification into one or more target identification sets. The number of times of putting in the set matched with the identification of the client can be increased by 1 every time the target identification set is put in. It should be noted that, before each time the load balancing method is executed, the electronic device may set an initial value of the number of times of putting into the set that matches the identifier of each client to zero. Then, the electronic device may select a preset number (e.g., 1, 2, etc.) of first identifiers in an order from a small number to a large number of times of grouping, and select the preset number of second identifiers in the order. Finally, the selected first and second identities may be determined as target identities to be included in a set of target identities matching the list of identities.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, after obtaining the updated identifier list, the electronic device may first determine the number of times of grouping that matches each identifier in the identifier list. Then, in response to determining that the first identifier does not exist in the identifier list, the identifiers in the identifier list may be sorted in order of the number of times of grouping from small to large. And finally, selecting the identifiers meeting the preset conditions as target identifiers according to the sequence so as to be included in a target identifier set matched with the identifier list. The preset condition may be various conditions, for example, the identifier is located in the first three digits of each sorted identifier, and the number of times of the set entry matched with the identifier is smaller than the preset number of times.

In some optional implementation manners of this embodiment, after determining the selected first identifier and the second identifier as target identifiers to be included in a target identifier set matching the identifier list, for each target identifier set, the electronic device may further extract a number of times of including the selected first identifier and the selected second identifier in the target identifier set, and increase the number of times of including the selected first identifier and the selected second identifier by a preset value. In practice, this preset value is 1.

Step 203, sending each generated target identifier set to a storage server, so that the storage server sends each target identifier set to a preset server when receiving a load result obtaining request sent by the preset server.

In this embodiment, the electronic device may send each generated target identifier set to a storage server (e.g., thestorage server 103 shown in fig. 1), so that the storage server sends each target identifier set to a preset server when receiving a load result obtaining request sent by the preset server (e.g., one or more servers in theserver cluster 105 shown in fig. 1).

With continued reference to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of the load balancing method according to the present embodiment. In the application scenario of fig. 4, theload balancing server 401 first determines a topic of a message handled by each server in a server cluster formed by a first server and a second server, generates a plurality of identification lists corresponding to the first server and divided by the topic, and generates a plurality of identification lists corresponding to the second server and divided by the topic.
