Detailed Description
Features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of the present invention will be described in detail below, and in order to make objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention. It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of the present invention by illustrating examples of the present invention.
It is noted that, herein, relational terms such as first and second, and the like may be used solely to distinguish one entity or action from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions. Also, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising … …" does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the element.
At present, a plurality of novel business applications such as augmented reality/virtual reality, 4K/8K resolution high-definition video, internet of things, industrial internet, internet of vehicles and the like are rapidly emerging, and increasingly high requirements are provided for the transmission capacity, data distribution processing capacity and the like of a network. In the face of rapid traffic growth and increasing user experience demands, communication networks are bound to bear huge pressure, and therefore, the networks must be adjusted in architecture to meet service demands such as ultra-large connections, ultra-low latency, and ultra-large bandwidth. To address the above challenges, it is proposed to provide computing processing and data storage capability at the network edge, i.e. edge computing, to achieve the goal of providing users with high quality services at the network edge. The basic idea of edge computing is to migrate a cloud computing platform (including computing, storage and network resources) to the edge of a network, try to realize deep fusion among a traditional mobile communication network, the internet of things and the like, reduce end-to-end time delay of service delivery, explore the internal capacity of the network, and improve user experience, thereby bringing a new revolution to the operation mode of a telecom operator, and establishing a novel industrial chain and a network ecosphere.
In order to help the conceptual understanding of the MEC, the overall system architecture of the MEC shown in fig. 1 is used as a contrast, and the MEC is primarily introduced in consideration of an application scenario of a simple user for acquiring content.
In a conventional manner without using MEC, when each User Equipment (UE) initiates a content service request, it first needs to access through a base station (eNodeB), then connects with a target content through a Core Network (CN), and then returns layer by layer, finally completing the interaction between the UE and the target content. If other terminals under the same base station initiate the same content request, the connection process and the call flow shown in fig. 1 need to be repeated. On the one hand, repeated connection and call wastes network resources; on the other hand, long-distance transmission also increases corresponding time delay. By introducing the MEC solution, the MEC server is deployed at the base station side close to the UE, so that the content can be cached on the MEC server, and a user can directly acquire the content from the MEC server without repeatedly acquiring the content through a core network. From the network perspective, the introduction of the MEC can not only avoid network congestion, but also save network resources on the core network side; from the user's perspective, this means a reduction in latency and an improvement in quality of service experience.
Based on the principle of the MEC, the reduction of the user service delay mainly depends on that the data required by the user is obtained from the MEC server at the base station side, but is limited by the limitation of the storage space, and the MEC server cannot store all the data, so that the hit probability (hereinafter referred to as data hit rate) of the data required by the user in the MEC server is improved as much as possible, and the user service delay can be reduced as much as possible. The data hit rate is improved, a good caching strategy is needed, most research works are to revise some caching strategies in the traditional wired network according to the characteristics of the mobile network, and in addition, some new caching schemes are also provided, such as caching strategies based on user preference, reinforcement learning or multi-node cooperation.
For the data caching strategies in the MEC server, which are mostly based on the content of the data and the user preference, although the data hit rate can be improved to some extent, the strategies are more suitable for the content type data.
In the fields of traffic and the like, data and position information have a great relationship, and many data are only required to be used in a certain range, for example, when a vehicle passes through a certain position, nearby traffic signal light information and nearby road condition information are required with a high probability, and when data stored in an MEC server corresponding to a base station through which the vehicle passes are nearby position data, the data are required with a high probability by the vehicle, so that the position relevance between the data cached in the MEC server and the data is high.
For the above scenario, in the cache policy in the prior art, since it is not determined according to the service type whether the location information of the data needs to be considered when caching the data related to the service, the cache policy efficiency of the MEC server for the service with high association degree with the location information is low, and the hit rate of the user for obtaining the data is low.
Therefore, the embodiment of the invention provides a data storage method, device, system and storage medium, which can improve the hit rate of the user for obtaining data.
For convenience of understanding the embodiments of the present invention, a data storage system in the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail first.

The data storage method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below based on the data storage system provided by the embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 3 is a schematic flowchart of a data storage method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 3, a data storage method provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes:
s301: the information acquisition equipment acquires service information.
The information acquisition equipment can periodically acquire the service information and can also acquire the service information in real time. For example, the state information of the traffic light can be collected according to the real-time change condition of the traffic light. The collected service information comprises service data, the position of service information collection and the service type information of the service information. And when new service information is acquired or updated, triggering information to be reported.
S302: and the information acquisition equipment sends the service information to the first base station.
The information acquisition device can be used as a terminal to access the first base station. And after receiving the service information, the first base station stores the service information in the first MEC server.
S303: the first MEC server determines whether the service information is information for a location-related service according to service type information in the service information. If not, executing S304; if so, S305 and S309 are performed.
The first MEC server needs to determine whether the service to which the service information is applied is a location-related service. For example, traffic service, such as status information of traffic signals, real-time traffic status information, location-related service, and video service, such as a short video, is location-independent.
S304: the first MEC server sends the service information to the centralized database.
When the service information is not information for a location-related service, the first MEC server transmits the service information to a centralized database, which stores the service information. At this time, the service information stored in the centralized database can be used as the service information on the platform side. The platform-side service information may be used in various services. Such as the service information is video type information, voice type information, etc.
S305: the first MEC server sends the service information to the second MEC server. S306 is performed.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the second MEC server may store the service information after receiving the service information, or may discard the service information. Next, it is determined whether the second MEC server needs to store the service information through S306.
S306: the second MEC server determines whether the location information in the service information is within a second preset range of the second base station. If yes, go to S307; if not, go to S308.
The service information carries the position information for acquiring the service information. Wherein the location information is a location where the service information is acquired. The service types corresponding to the services applied by different service information have different requirements for the position range of the acquired service information. For example, a traffic service may require service information within 3 km; application to industrial internets may require business information within 100 meters. Therefore, the second MEC server may set different preset ranges for different types of services. And when the position information in the service information is within the preset range of the second station, the second MEC server stores the service information.
S307: the second MEC server stores the service information.
The second MEC server stores the service information for the terminal to obtain the service information. For example, if the vehicle-mounted terminal attached to the second base station needs to acquire the real-time status of a traffic light, and the location of the traffic light is within a second preset range of the second base station, the second MEC server stores the real-time status information of the traffic light. The terminal can avoid the time delay of information transmission increased by long-distance transmission of the service information, the acquisition efficiency of the service information is improved, and the hit rate of the edge cache data is improved. Here, the second MEC server may be any one of MEC servers adjacent to the first MEC server.
S308: the second MEC server discards the traffic information.
S309: the first MEC server sends the service information to the centralized database.
When the service information is information for a service related to a location, the first MEC server transmits the service information to a centralized database, which stores the service information. At this time, the service information stored in the centralized database can be used as the service information on the platform side. The platform-side service information may be used in various services. Such as the service information is video type information, voice type information, etc.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, S305 and S309 do not have a sequential execution order.
The data storage system provided by the embodiment of the invention is used for receiving the service information sent by the first base station through the first MEC server, wherein the service information comprises position information for acquiring the service information and service type information of the service information; and determining whether the service information is information for a service related to the location according to the service type information; transmitting the service information to the second MEC server when the service information is information for a service related to the location; the first MEC server is also used for sending service information to the centralized database; the second MEC server is used for determining whether the position information is positioned in a first preset range of the second base station according to the position information in the received service information; when the position information is located in a first preset range of the second base station, storing the service information; and the centralized database is used for storing the service information sent by the first MEC server, so that the hit rate of the user for obtaining the data is improved.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, after the centralized database stores the service information, when the MEC server initializes or needs to update the data, the service information needs to be acquired from the centralized database. As shown in fig. 4, the MEC server obtaining the service information from the centralized database includes the following steps:
s401: a business request sent by the MEC server to the centralized database; the service request carries service type information, an identifier of the MEC server and a preset range.
When the MEC server needs to update data or initialize data, a service request is sent to the centralized database. The service request carries service type information, an identifier of the MEC server and a preset range. The preset range is the preset range of the base station corresponding to the MEC server, and the MEC server only stores the service information of the base station corresponding to the MEC server in the preset range. Wherein the MEC server is arranged within a certain range of the base station.
S402: and the centralized database determines the service information according to the service type information and the preset range.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the centralized database establishes data demand information for the MEC server according to the service type information and the preset range. And each item of service information in the data requirement information is associated with and records the MEC server identifier, the service type information and the preset range. Each MEC server may have records of information of multiple service types, and the preset range of each service type may be different.
S403: and the centralized database sends the service information to the MEC server according to the identification of the MEC server.
And the centralized database extracts the corresponding service type information and the data in the preset range for the MEC server according to the data demand information and the identification of the MEC server, and initially sends or updates the data to the MEC server.
