Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which various details of embodiments of the invention are included to assist understanding, and which are to be considered as merely exemplary. Accordingly, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications of the embodiments described herein can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Also, descriptions of well-known functions and constructions are omitted in the following description for clarity and conciseness.
It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the technical features of the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of the main steps of a method of synchronizing data according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, a method for synchronizing data according to an embodiment of the present invention mainly includes the following steps:
step S101: and monitoring a second pointer on the second server in real time, wherein the second pointer is used for indicating the last updated data in the second data on the second server.
The method for synchronizing data provided by the embodiment of the invention is applied to a first server, in the related technology of a distributed system, the first server is a server configured locally, and in the related technology of a virtual machine, the first server is a virtual machine configured locally. The first server stores first data and a first pointer, the first data refers to cache data on the first server, and the first pointer is used for indicating data which is updated last in the first data.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the first data may include any one or more of: an item identification, an inventory quantity of the item, and a storage location of the item.
In the embodiment of the invention, the first server monitors the second pointer on the second server in real time to ensure that whether the second data on the second server is updated or not is known in time. The second server is a central server in the distributed system related technology or the virtual machine related technology, and can be deployed on the line or in the cloud. The second server stores second data and a second pointer, and the second pointer is used for indicating the last updated data in the second data.
In the embodiment of the invention, when the second data on the second server is not updated or the second data is updated and the synchronization data of the first server is completed, the first data and the second data are the same; and when the second data on the second server changes and the first server is synchronizing the data, the first data is different from the second data. However, the first server monitors the second pointer on the second server in real time, when the second data on the second server is updated, the process of synchronizing the data by the first server can be started in time, and the time consumed by the synchronization process under the current network transmission technology is very short, so that the first data on the first server is kept consistent with the second data on the second server in most of the time, and the problem that the data cannot be synchronized in time among different servers at present, and further the data on different servers are inconsistent is solved to a great extent.
Step S102: judging whether the first pointer and the second pointer are the same; and if not, determining the data to be synchronized on the second server according to the second pointer.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first pointer and the second pointer may respectively store the amount of the first data and the amount of the second data, where the first pointer and the second pointer correspond to a counter, the second pointer is circularly increased by 1 when there is an update of the data, and the first pointer is circularly increased by 1 when the data is synchronized, so that the first pointer and the second pointer respectively indicate the last updated data of the first data and the second data. For example, at a certain time, the first pointer is "182", which indicates that there are 182 data in the first data, and the 182 th data is the last updated data of the first server, and at this time, the first server knows that the second pointer is "184" by monitoring, which indicates that there are 184 data in the second data, and the 184 th data is the last updated data of the second server, so the first server can determine that: the first pointer and the second pointer are different, and the data to be synchronized on the second server is determined according to the second pointer.
In the embodiment of the present invention, when the physical start address of the first data on the first server is the same as the physical start address of the second data on the second server, the first pointer and the second pointer may further store the physical address of the last updated data in the first data and the second data, respectively, when there is an update of data, the second pointer cyclically adds a step size, and when the data is synchronized, the first pointer cyclically adds a step size. For example, at a certain time, the first pointer points to "11230H", which indicates that the last updated data in the first data is stored at "11230H", and at this time, the first server monitors that the second pointer points to "1123 AH", which indicates that the last updated data in the second data is stored at "1123 AH", so that the first server can determine that: the first pointer and the second pointer are different, and the data to be synchronized on the second server is determined according to the second pointer.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first server may further monitor second data pointed by the second pointer in real time, and determine whether the second data is updated by determining whether the first data pointed by the first pointer is the same as the second data pointed by the second pointer. And when the first data pointed by the first pointer is different from the second data pointed by the second pointer, the second data is changed, and the first server determines the data to be synchronized on the second server according to the second pointer.
In the embodiment of the invention, the data to be synchronized is the data which is updated on the second server but not synchronized by the first server. And when the first pointer and the second pointer are judged to be different, the first server can determine the data to be synchronized on the second server according to the second pointer. Therefore, the first server can only execute the synchronization operation on the data to be synchronized, the second data on the second server does not need to be traversed to determine the data to be synchronized, and the function of synchronizing the data does not need to be realized by acquiring all the second data on the second server. As can be seen from the above description, the embodiment of the present invention can implement the function of synchronizing data under the condition of occupying few server resources, and does not affect the normal performance of the server.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first server may determine whether the first pointer and the second pointer are the same by monitoring the second pointer in real time; it may also be determined whether the first pointer and the second pointer are the same by receiving a data update broadcast from a second server.
Step S103: and synchronizing the first data and the second data according to the data to be synchronized.
In the embodiment of the present invention, after the first server determines the data to be synchronized on the second server according to the second pointer, the first server updates the first data according to the data to be synchronized, so as to synchronize the first data with the second data. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating main steps of a method for updating first data according to data to be synchronized according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 2, a method for updating first data according to data to be synchronized according to an embodiment of the present invention mainly includes the following steps:
step S201: determining a buffer queue for storing data to be synchronized, wherein the buffer queue comprises: the data to be synchronized and a second pointer identification corresponding to the data to be synchronized;
step S202: the first pointer is increased in an increment mode, and a second pointer identification which is the same as the increased first pointer is determined from the cache queue;
step S203: updating the first data according to the data to be synchronized corresponding to the determined second pointer identification;
step S204: judging whether the first pointer and the second pointer are the same, if not, returning to the step S202, and if so, executing the step S205;
step S205: the current flow is ended.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the updating of the second data includes operations such as adding, deleting, and modifying, and the data amount in the second data is increased: when new data exist, the second server directly writes the new data into second data; when the original data is deleted or modified, the second server adds a deletion or modification identifier based on the original second data to generate new second data. And the second pointer records the position of the second data change in an incremental mode.
The synchronization of the first data by the first server is similar to the update of the second data by the second server, specifically: when the second data contains newly added data, the first server directly writes the newly added data into the first data; when the second data has deletion or modification operation, the first server adds a deletion or modification identifier based on the original first data to generate new first data. At this time, the data amount in the first data is increased, and the first pointer records the position of the first data changed in an incremental manner.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the cache queue is used for storing the change track of the second data. The buffer queue may include data to be synchronized and a second pointer identifier corresponding to the data to be synchronized, where the second pointer identifier is used to store a value of the second pointer when the corresponding data to be synchronized is indicated by the second pointer. And at the moment, the first server directly determines corresponding data to be synchronized according to the second pointer identification which is the same as the increased first pointer, and updates the first data according to the data to be synchronized.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the buffer queue may also include a data id to be synchronized and a second pointer identifier corresponding to the data id to be synchronized, where the second pointer identifier is used to store a value of the second pointer when the corresponding data id to be synchronized is indicated by the second pointer. At this time, the first server firstly determines a corresponding data id to be synchronized according to a second pointer identification which is the same as the increased first pointer, then determines corresponding data to be synchronized from the second data according to the data id to be synchronized, and updates the first data according to the data to be synchronized.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the increments of the first pointer and the second pointer may be from 1, and the first pointer and the second pointer increase by one step each time the first data and the second data change.
In the embodiment of the invention, when the first server is not synchronized with the second server for a long time, all the second data can be pulled from the second server once and the first data can be replaced, so that accidental errors existing in the data transmission process can be avoided. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps: the first server starts timing after updating the first data, and when the recorded duration reaches a first preset duration threshold and new data updating does not occur within the recorded duration, the first server acquires all second data from the second server and replaces the first data according to the acquired all second data. And if the first server carries out synchronous operation in the timing process, clearing the recorded duration and timing again. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first preset time threshold may be 30 minutes.
According to the method for synchronizing data, provided by the embodiment of the invention, the first server monitors the second pointer on the second server in real time, and when the second pointer is judged to be different from the first pointer of the first server, the data to be synchronized on the second server can be determined in time according to the second pointer, so that the effect of synchronizing the first data of the first server in time is realized. In addition, the first server can only synchronize the determined data to be synchronized on the second server without traversing all data of the second server, so that the operation resources of the first server are saved, and the performance of the first server is more effectively exerted.
