A method and system for distributing remote software versions of terminal equipment

Abstract

The present invention provides a remote software version distribution method and system for terminal equipment, maintains a version list for terminal equipment managed by each system, supports terminal equipment programs to be split according to any software component types that are easy to manage, and provides for each type of software components. The software components establish a version link list. Different software component types have their own independent upgrade lines, and the upgrades of various types of software components do not depend on each other. Using the group policy mode, it can support automatic upgrades after the registration of new devices in the group; The agreed program interface or system storage data obtains the actual version number of the software component, and matches the version number recorded by the server to ensure the authenticity and uniqueness of the version list. The invention can efficiently, safely and conveniently carry out refined control and management of remote software distribution and unified version management of terminal equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and system for distributing remote software versions of terminal equipment. Background technique [0002] With the development of network computing technology and new IT technology, a large number of medium and large enterprises such as banks, telecommunications, medical care, and Internet companies use terminal equipment (such as self-service equipment, smart terminal equipment, etc.) Existing business and job functions. As the deployment of terminal equipment continues to increase, centralized management has a greater impact. Enterprises have continuously increased requirements for software flexibility and scalability of terminal equipment, and the scope of maintenance and management of terminal software has also increased. Typical examples include: software distribution, installation, Upgrade, configuration, etc.; taking bank financial self-service equipment as an example, the system provides 24-hour all-weather se...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The existing remote software distribution system does not provide a relatively complete version management function, and generally has the following deficiencies more or less: general file distribution adopts a file package coarse-grained method to upgrade the device software system and lacks version management functions; there is a system upgrade version number However, it is unable to track and manage the real version information of detailed components in the system; it lacks a complete upgrade chain of the software system, and does not support incremental upgrade mode and new equipment automatically inherits the software version by group mode; Synchronous distribution of the full amount of files, poor flexibility, and has the impact of upgrade performance; etc., which is not conducive to remote unified distribution of terminal equipment software and refined management
