Abstract

The utility model provides a stream media service system, comprising a plurality of media engines, each composed of a stream service device with the capacity of stream service and a slice storing device holding multimedia file slices; and a media director, which is composed of a storage manager governing the storage positions of the multimedia file slices and a stream service director dispatching and switching stream service. The utility model also provides the method of slicing multimedia file, the storing method with slices as storage units as well as the method of stream service dispatching and switching. By adopting the system and methods in the utility model, the grid storage and grid stream service can share a cluster server so as to cut hardware cost, diminish grid copy, reduce grid flux as well as improve the IO capacity and stream service capacity of the stream media server and in turn provide the stream media service of high performance-price ratio.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the fields of multimedia communication and Internet TV (IPTV), in particular to a multimedia file slicing method, a grid storage and grid streaming service method using media files as storage units in a streaming media service system, and a streaming media service system . Background technique [0002] With the development of multimedia network communication technology, high-bit-rate multimedia streaming, especially high-bit-rate video streaming, has grown from handling thousands of simultaneous users to millions of users. For example, high-bit-rate streaming media services represented by IPTV have reached the stage of millions of users, and it is no longer possible to rely on centralized powerful machines to provide storage and streaming services. Therefore, it is an inevitable solution to provide grid storage and grid streaming services based on cluster or even multi-cluster servers. [0003] In the general grid sto...
