Data caching method and device for storage management software

Abstract

The invention discloses a data caching method and device for storage management software. The method includes the steps that behavioral data corresponding to each user is collected and stored in a database; on the basis of the behavioral data stored in the database, high-frequency usage data corresponding to each user is analyzed based on a preset rule; after each user logs in, the corresponding high-frequency usage data is requested and caching to a local. According to the data caching method and device for storage management software, on the basis of the behavioral data stored in the database, the high-frequency usage data corresponding to each user is analyzed based on the preset rule, so that through analysis of the behavioral data of the users, the high-frequency usage data frequently used by each user is acquired; after each user logs in, the corresponding high-frequency usage data is requested and caching to the local, so that the high-frequency usage data needs rapid response to the users is intelligently cached in advance. Therefore, convenience is brought to operations like viewing by the users, catching time of software system initialization is reduced, the response speed of user operation is improved, and research investment of a manufacturer is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of storage technology, in particular to a data caching method and device for storage management software. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, the data request process in the storage management software can be as follows figure 1 As shown, from the time when the user logs in to the software and sends a request to the middle layer to process the request and query the bottom layer, after obtaining the required information, the middle layer processes and returns to the UI (the abbreviation of User Interface user interface, which generally refers to the operation interface of user software) to show. Although for some cases where the amount of data is small or the logic of obtaining from the bottom layer is not complicated, the above data request process can meet the needs of users, but in the storage management software, facing a large number of storage clusters and complex storage scenarios, the user needs to...

Problems solved by technology

When the user operates to view information, the request and response time of the above-mentioned set of processes is long, and the continuous loading of data requires the user to wait, and as the amount of data and the query complexity of the requested information increase, the response time will continue to increase, and even software The interface is stuck, which not only reduces the user's efficiency, but also greatly reduces the user experience

[0003] From the perspective of software manufacturers, at present, they are improving the software system architecture to improve the usability of the system and the data response time. Software development costs, and it is very difficult to change the architecture for some released storage software products

There is a further way to build a cache library and initialize the cache system data, but for users, caching a large amount of data locally is not necessarily what the user needs, and loading a large amount of system data locally is very complicated. When initializing the cache, there is still a problem of response time or serious system crashes
