Equivalent network flow media service processing system and method

Abstract

The invention discloses an equivalent network flow media service processing system and a method thereof. The method comprises: a client obtains from the user locating server the address information of the integrated server of the zone where the client is located; the client is connected with the integrated server of the zone where the client is located according to the address information of the integrated server; the client sends a program data request to a node index server via the integrated server of the zone where the client is located; the client receives the node list which is generated by the node index server according to the program data request and returned via the integrated server; and the client transmits program data with the modes in the node list. The client in the invention can realize equivalent network flow media service in the zone where the client is located, thus an operator can manage the an equivalent network flow media service in partitioned manner, flow partitioning of the equivalent network flow media service is realized and the load on the backbone network is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a streaming media technology, in particular to a peer-to-peer network streaming media service processing system and method suitable for operators, and belongs to the field of network communication. Background technique [0002] Streaming Media (Streaming Media) refers to the continuous audio / video data stream in which data is transmitted and played in chronological order on the network. Different from the traditional playback method, the client does not need to download the entire program file when playing the program in the streaming media mode, but plays it while receiving it, and only needs to cache part of the program data, which saves download waiting time and storage space . [0003] With the development of Peer-to-Peer (Peer-to-Peer, hereinafter referred to as: P2P) technology, P2P streaming media services have been widely used. P2P technology breaks the traditional client / server model and is a solution based on peer-t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The system only has a set of service provider servers and management servers, and the edge servers are not divided into regions. Therefore, it is impossible to realize regional management of P2P streaming media services. For operators, such a system is difficult to control and manage ; and in the existing system, because the edge server is not divided by region, when the program data is transmitted between the client and the edge server, all the edge servers can be used as the provider of the program data in the P2P streaming media service, so that not only the same Program data can be transmitted between regional clients, and program data can also be transmitted between clients in different regions, which increases cross-regional traffic in the process of program data transmission, and the existing system cannot realize the traffic of P2P streaming services It is limited to the area where the client is located, that is, traffic area cannot be realized, thus increasing the load of the backbone network
