Embodiments of the specification provide a data processing method, apparatus, and device. To enable a person skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the specification, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the specification will be described clearly and thoroughly below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the specification. It is apparent that the described embodiments are merely some rather than all of the embodiments of the specification. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the specification without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the specification.
As shown in
In step S102, a query parameter is received.
In some embodiments, the query parameter is related to target data. The target data may be any data, such as relevant data of a certain user, relevant data of any event or relevant data of any transaction. The query parameter may be a user ID, a keyword or keywords and the like.
In some embodiments, a blockchain may be interpreted as a data storage technology. A traditional database technology may include receiving written-in data, saving a data-written log into a database, and writing the data into the database. When the database loses data, the data may be restored by re-performing the data-written log. A blockchain data writing-in method is similar to the traditional method. Each block may record the data-written log of which data has been verified by the block, and may also store change information of a data state after the data-written log is performed. The blockchain may be a ledger, which is a decentralized distributed database. The blockchain has the following characteristics: decentralized, transparent, non-tamperable, and trustworthy. Each piece of data on the blockchain may be broadcast to blockchain nodes of the entire network, and each blockchain node has full and consistent data. Basic data such as a Hash value of a previous block, a transaction set of the block and the Hash of the block are recorded on each block in the blockchain. Each block has the Hash value of the previous block, and the blocks may be serially connected in pairs by Hash values to form a blockchain.
A trusted computing system may have a plurality of data sources and may perform multi-dimensional computing, and therefore, data sources may be from different entities during computing, such as businesses, institutions or organizations. While the different institutions or organizations have different data storage technologies, such as a recordkeeping blockchain signed by multiple parties: all data on the recordkeeping blockchain is uploaded after being endorsed and signed by a plurality of trusted organizations. The recordkeeping blockchain may be a public blockchain or a consortium blockchain, and all results are signed and authenticated by multiple parties. For a consortium blockchain of an account model, its platform mainly adopts an account model, and all operations on an account are completed by transactions. For a consortium blockchain of a non-account model, its platform links the data in a form of Hash-Value, and only a Hash value is required when querying. For a traditional trusted storage (OSS (Operation Support System), HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System) and the like): the data of the traditional trusted storage is provided by a trusted party and may be directly queried by a key or unique identifier of the data.
In a traditional centralized computing platform, to perform trusted computing, data is generally obtained in the following two ways: 1. data of a plurality of data sources is migrated into a certain centralized platform system; and 2. a plurality of centralized data sources provide interfaces for use by a computing platform. In the first way, the migration of the data sources is relatively cumbersome, and the reliability of the data cannot be guaranteed. In the second way, a data source based on the blockchain is not considered, and the data reliability of the blockchain needs to pass various verifications such as SPV (Simplified Payment Verification) and signature verification.
With the development of blockchain technology, more and more data sources will be stored using blockchains. Due to the diversification of the blockchain structure, multi-chain technology can be used to store various data. In order to guarantee the reliability of the data, the transparency and non-tampering of a computing result, the specification provides a trusted blockchain computing platform solution as follows.
A decentralized application (namely DApp) may be installed in the decentralized node. The decentralized application may be started when a query is performed or a certain query parameter to query relevant data is inputted. In some embodiments, the query can be performed by a manager or a technician. In some embodiments, the query parameter may be input by the manager or the technician. A server of the decentralized application may send corresponding webpage data to the decentralized application, and the decentralized application may display the received webpage data. As shown in
In step S104, query result data is obtained from each predetermined data source according to the query parameter.
A plurality of predetermined data sources such as one or more of the recordkeeping blockchain signed by multiple parties, the consortium blockchain of the account model, the consortium blockchain of the non-account model and the traditional trusted storage mentioned in the step S102 may be included. In some embodiments, the recordkeeping blockchain signed by multiple parties, the consortium blockchain of the account model, the consortium blockchain of the non-account model and the traditional trusted storage correspond to servers or server clusters, and accordingly, the predetermined data source may include data in a Fabric cluster, data in an ETH cluster, data in a recordkeeping blockchain cluster of a non-account model, and Data in OSS and HDFS clusters.
In some embodiments, information such as a predetermined data source ID may be obtained after the decentralized application receives the query parameter data, then, a query request may be sent to each data source. The device where the data source is located may obtain the query data from the corresponding data source according to the query parameter, and send the query data to the decentralized application, so that the decentralized application may obtain the query data from each predetermined data source, and the obtained query data may form query result data.
In step S106, the query result data is converted into target reliable data conforming to a predetermined data reliability protocol.
The data reliability protocol may be determined according to an actual condition, and the data reliability protocol may be a UDAG (Unified Directed Acyclic Graph) protocol or a Merkle DAG protocol.
In some embodiments, the query result data may be obtained from the predetermined data sources. While the reliability of the data in the predetermined data sources may not be high, the obtained query result data may be converted into data with relatively high reliability by the predetermined data reliability protocol to guarantee the universality of the platform and the computing reliability. In some embodiments, data format information before and after the data conversion may be determined based on the relevant content of the predetermined data reliability protocol. The data format of the query result data may be converted into a data format corresponding to the data reliability protocol based on the format information of the converted data, as such the target reliable data conforming to the predetermined data reliability protocol can be obtained. In some embodiments, the target reliable data may be a UDAG request or a Merkle DAG request.
In step S108, the target reliable data is sent to a blockchain node.
In some embodiments, as shown in
An embodiment of the specification provides a data processing method. A query parameter is received, and then, the query result data may be obtained from each predetermined data source according to the query parameter. The query result data is converted into target reliable data conforming to the predetermined data reliability protocol, and the target reliable data may be sent to the blockchain node. As such, a subsequent blockchain node may obtain the corresponding query result data through the target reliable data, and perform multi-dimensional computing on the corresponding query result data to obtain the target query result corresponding to the query parameter. By using the data of the plurality of data sources, the breadth of computing sources is increased. The computing logic may be separated from the data, and the decentralized node is used as a footstone for allowing the data to enter the blockchain, thus simplifying the processing of the blockchain. The data reliability protocol is used for certifying data reliability, so that the logic and rules cannot be falsified, the reliability of the data can be guaranteed, and the reliability of the computing result can be improved.
As shown in
In step S402, target reliable data which is sent by a decentralized node and conforms to a predetermined data reliability protocol is received, the target reliable data is obtained by converting query result data according to the predetermined data reliability protocol, and the query result data is respectively obtained from each predetermined data source according to a query parameter.
The processing procedure of the step S402 may refer to relevant contents in the steps S102 to S108, and the descriptions thereof are not repeated herein.
In step S404, the target reliable data is parsed to obtain the corresponding query result data.
In some embodiments, the target reliable data (which may be a UDAG request or a Merkle DAG request) may be parsed after being received by the blockchain node, corresponding data may be obtained from a trusted node according to the relevant contents parsed from the target reliable data. For example, the corresponding data can be obtained from a trusted SPV node, a trusted ETH node, and a Fabric cluster node, and the obtained data may be combined as the corresponding query result data. The trusted node may be determined according to the blockchain, namely the blockchain node used as the trusted node may be selected through the blockchain.
In step S406, logical computing may be performed on the query result data to obtain a target query result corresponding to the query parameter.
In some embodiments, the logical computing includes multi-dimensional computing, the multi-dimensional computing may be performed on the obtained query result data to obtain the corresponding computing result, and the query result data is obtained from the trusted node in the blockchain. As such the reliability of the computing result obtained by multi-dimensional computing of the blockchain node is relatively high. The obtained computing result may be used as the target query result corresponding to the query parameter.
When the user queries the corresponding data by using the query parameter again, the blockchain node may directly send the target query result corresponding to the query parameter to the user and may guarantee the reliability of the target query result provided to the user.
An embodiment of the specification provides a data processing method. A query parameter is received, and the query result data may be respectively obtained from each predetermined data source according to the query parameter. The query result data is converted into the target reliable data conforming to the predetermined data reliability protocol, and the target reliable data may be sent to the blockchain node. As such a subsequent blockchain node may obtain the corresponding query result data through the target reliable data, and multi-dimensional computing may be performed on the corresponding query result data to obtain the target query result corresponding to the query parameter. By using the data of the plurality of data sources, the breath of computing sources is increased. A computing logic may be separated from the data, and the decentralized node is used as a footstone for allowing the data to enter the blockchain, thus simplifying the processing of the blockchain. The data reliability protocol is used for certifying data reliability, so that the logic and rules cannot be falsified, the reliability of the data can be guaranteed, and the reliability of the computing result can be improved.
As shown in
In step S502, the decentralized node receives a query parameter.
In step S504, the decentralized node respectively obtains query result data from each predetermined data source according to the query parameter.
As shown in
As there can be a plurality of data sources, the obtained query result data may include a plurality of data. For example, the query result data includes one or more of the following: ReadWriteSet data in a Fabric cluster node, SPV data in an ETH cluster node, transaction information stored on the consortium blockchain of the non-account model, and corresponding data in an OSS cluster. The Fabric cluster node may be one or more nodes in the recordkeeping blockchain signed by multiple parties, and the ETH cluster node may be one or more nodes in the consortium blockchain of the account model.
In step S506, the decentralized node converts the query result data into target reliable data conforming to a predetermined data reliability protocol.
The data reliability protocol may include a UDAG protocol, a Merkle DAG protocol and the like.
In step S508, the decentralized node sends the target reliable data to the blockchain node.
The processing procedures of steps S502 to S508 may refer to relevant contents in the Embodiment 1, and the descriptions thereof are not repeated herein.
In step S510, the blockchain node parses the target reliable data to obtain corresponding query result data.
In some embodiments, the reliability of the data of the blockchain requires to be verified by various verification solutions such as SPV and signature. Therefore, the query result data may be verified after being obtained by the blockchain node, and the description may refer to the processing in step S512 and step S514.
In step S512, the blockchain node verifies the query result data.
In some embodiments, based on the relevant contents, the query result data may include data of a plurality of different data sources, such as the ReadWriteSet data, the SPV data, the transaction information, and the corresponding data. The different data may be respectively verified, namely the ReadWriteSet data, the SPV data, the transaction information, the corresponding data and the like may be verified. In one embodiment, each kind of data in the query result data may be respectively verified; in another embodiment, a designated kind of data in the query result data may be verified (for example, only the SPV data in the query result data is verified). The verification manner may be determined according to an actual situation, and is not limited in the embodiments of the specification.
In some embodiments, if each kind of data required to be verified passes the verification, the processing in the step S514 may be performed. In some other embodiments, if none of data required to be verified passes the verification, the date in the query result data may be determined as having poor reliability. Accordingly, relevant prompt information may be sent to determine the relevant causes and restart the processing procedure. In one embodiment, the relevant prompt information may be sent to a manager or a technician so as to prompt the manager or the technician to determine the relevant causes in time and restart the processing procedure. In yet some other embodiments, if part of data required to be verified does not pass the verification, the data in the query result data may be determined as having relatively poor reliability. Accordingly, relevant prompt information may be sent to the manager or the technician, and the relevant information of the data with relatively poor reliability is sent to the manager or the technician and the like.
In step S514, if the query result data passes the verification, the blockchain node performs logical computing on the query result data to obtain a target query result corresponding to the query parameter.
In some embodiments, if each kind of data required to be verified passes the verification, the blockchain node may perform multi-dimensional computing on the query result data to obtain the target query result corresponding to the query parameter.
In some embodiments, the reliability of the data in the target query result is relatively high after the target query result corresponding to the query parameter is obtained, and the target query result and the query parameter may be correspondingly stored. When the blockchain node receives the query parameter again, the target query result corresponding to the query parameter may be directly found from the stored data and provided to a queryer, and the description may refer to the processing in step S516 and step S518.
In step S516, the blockchain node receives a query request which is sent by a user and includes the query parameter.
The user may be any user requiring the blockchain or the blockchain node to provide relevant service (such as relevant service of a payment transaction).
In some embodiments, the user's terminal device may include an application program, and the user may obtain corresponding data or corresponding service and the like from the corresponding blockchain or blockchain node. When the user needs to query certain data (namely the data of the target query result), the query parameter may be input. After the input is completed, the terminal device may be triggered to obtain the query parameter by a relevant operation such as clicking, and the corresponding query request is generated and may be sent to the blockchain node. The blockchain node may receive the query request.
In step S518, the blockchain node sends the target query result corresponding to the query parameter to the user.
In some embodiments, after receiving the query request, the blockchain node may extract the query parameter, and then, may determine whether the stored data includes the query parameter. If yes, the target query result corresponding to the query parameter may be obtained and provided to the user. As such, not only may the corresponding query result be quickly obtained for the user, but also the reliability of the query result provided to the user may be guaranteed.
The specification provides a data processing method. The query parameter is received, and the query result data may be respectively obtained from each predetermined data source according to the query parameter. The query result data is converted into the target reliable data conforming to the predetermined data reliability protocol, and the target reliable data may be sent to the blockchain node. As such, a subsequent blockchain node may obtain the corresponding query result data through the target reliable data, and perform multi-dimensional computing on the corresponding query result data to obtain the target query result corresponding to the query parameter. By using the data of the plurality of data sources, the breadth of computing sources is increased. The computing logic may be separated from the data, and the decentralized node is used as a footstone for allowing the data to enter the blockchain, thus simplifying the processing of the blockchain. The data reliability protocol is used for certifying data reliability, so that the logic and rules cannot be falsified, the reliability of the data can be guaranteed, and the reliability of the computing result can be improved.

The operations may include receiving a query parameter; obtaining query result data from each of one or more predetermined data sources according to the query parameter; converting the query result data into target reliable data conforming to a predetermined data reliability protocol; and sending the target reliable data to a blockchain node.
The foregoing describes specific embodiments of the specification. Other embodiments fall within the scope of the appended claims. In some cases, the acts or steps described in the claims may be performed in a different order than that in the embodiments and can still achieve the desired results. In addition, the processes depicted in the accompanying drawings do not necessarily require a particular order or sequential order shown in order to achieve the desired results. In some embodiments, multitasking and parallel processing are also possible or may be advantageous.
In the 1990s, improvements of a technology can be clearly distinguished between hardware improvements (for example, improvements to a circuit structure such as a diode, a transistor, a switch, etc.) and software improvements (improvements to a method procedure). However, with the development of technology, improvements of many method procedures can be considered as direct improvements of hardware circuit structures. Designers almost all program an improved method procedure to a hardware circuit, to obtain a corresponding hardware circuit structure. Therefore, it does not mean that the improvement of a method procedure cannot be implemented by using a hardware entity module. For example, a programmable logic device (PLD) such as a field programmable gate array (FPGA) is a type of integrated circuit whose logic function is determined by a user by programming the device. The designers perform voluntary programming to “integrate” a digital system into a single PLD without requiring a chip manufacturer to design and prepare a dedicated integrated circuit chip. In addition, instead of making an integrated circuit chip manually, the programming is mostly implemented by using “logic compiler software, which is similar to the software compiler used to write programs. Original code before compiling is also written in a specific programming language, which is referred to as Hardware Description Language (HDL). There are many types of HDLs, such as Advanced Boolean Expression Language (ABEL), Altera Hardware Description Language (AHDL), Confluence, Cornell University Programming Language (CUPL), HDCal, Java Hardware Description Language (JHDL), Lava, Lola, MyHDL, PALASM, Ruby Hardware Description Language (RHDL), etc. Currently, Very-High-Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language (VHDL) and Verilog are most commonly used. A person skilled in the art should also understand that as long as a method procedure is logically programmed and then programmed to an integrated circuit by using the foregoing hardware description languages, a hardware circuit that implements the logical method procedure can be easily obtained.
The controller can be implemented in any suitable manner, for example, the controller can take the form of, for example, a microprocessor or processor and a computer-readable medium storing computer-readable program code (for example, software or firmware) executable by the processor, a logic gate, a switch, an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a programmable logic controller and an embedded microcontroller. Examples of the controller include, but are not limited to, the following microcontrollers: ARC 625D, Atmel AT91SAM, Microchip PIC18F26K20 and Silicone Labs C8051F320. The memory controller can also be implemented as part of the memory control logic. A person skilled in the art will also appreciate that, in addition to implementing the controller in the form of pure computer-readable program code, it is also possible to implement the controller in the form of a logic gate, switch, application-specific integrated circuit, programmable logic controller, and embedded microcontroller and other forms to achieve the same function. Such a controller can thus be considered as a hardware component and apparatuses included therein for implementing various functions can also be considered as structures inside the hardware component. Alternatively, apparatuses configured to implement various functions can be considered as both software modules implementing the method and structures inside the hardware component.
The system, the apparatus, the module or the unit described in the foregoing embodiments can be specifically implemented by a computer chip or an entity or implemented by a product having a certain function. A typical implementation device is a computer. Specifically, the computer can be, for example, a personal computer, a laptop computer, a cellular phone, a camera phone, a smartphone, a personal digital assistant, a media player, a navigation device, an email device, a game console, a tablet computer, a wearable device, or a combination of any of these devices.
For ease of description, when the apparatus is described, the apparatus is divided into units according to functions, which are separately described. Certainly, when one or more embodiments of the specification are implemented, functions of the units can be implemented in one or more types of software and/or hardware.
A person skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the specification may be provided as a method, a system, or a computer program product. Therefore, one or more embodiments of the specification can use a form of hardware only embodiments, software only embodiments, or embodiments combining software and hardware. Moreover, one or more embodiments of the present invention may use a form of a computer program product that is implemented on one or more computer-usable storage media (including but not limited to a disk memory, a CD-ROM, an optical memory, and the like) that include computer-usable program code.
The embodiments of the specification are described with reference to the flowcharts and/or block diagrams of the method, the device (system), and the computer program product according to the embodiments of the specification. It should be understood that computer program instructions may be used for implementing each process and/or each block in the flowcharts and/or the block diagrams and a combination of a process and/or a block in the flowcharts and/or the block diagrams. These computer program instructions may be provided for a general-purpose computer, a dedicated computer, an embedded processor, or a processor of any other programmable data processing device to generate a machine, so that the instructions executed by a computer or a processor of any other programmable data processing device generate an apparatus for implementing a specific function in one or more processes in the flowcharts and/or in one or more blocks in the block diagrams.
These computer program instructions may further be stored in a computer readable memory that can instruct the computer or any other programmable data processing device to work in a specific manner, so that the instructions stored in the computer readable memory generate an artifact that includes an instruction apparatus. The instruction apparatus implements a specified function in one or more processes in the flowcharts and/or in one or more blocks in the block diagrams.
These computer program instructions may further be loaded onto a computer or another programmable data processing device, so that a series of operations and steps are performed on the computer or the another programmable device, thereby generating computer-implemented processing. Therefore, the instructions executed on the computer or the another programmable device provide steps for implementing a specific function in one or more processes in the flowcharts and/or in one or more blocks in the block diagrams.
In a typical configuration, the computer device includes one or more processors (CPUs), an input/output interface, a network interface, and a memory.
The memory may include, among computer readable media, a non-persistent memory such as a random access memory (RAM) and/or a non-volatile memory such as a read-only memory (ROM) or a flash memory (flash RAM). The memory is an example of the computer-readable medium.
The computer-readable medium includes persistent, non-persistent, movable, and unmovable media that may implement information storage by using any method or technology. Information may be a computer-readable instruction, a data structure, a program module, or other data. Examples of computer storage media include but are not limited to a phase change memory (PRAM), a static random access memory (SRAM), a dynamic random access memory (DRAM), other type of random access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), a flash memory or other memory technology, a compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM), a digital versatile disc (DVD) or other optical storage, a cassette magnetic tape, tape and disk storage or other magnetic storage device or any other non-transmission media that may be configured to store information that a computing device can access. Based on the definition in the specification, the computer-readable medium does not include transitory computer readable media (transitory media), such as a modulated data signal and a carrier.
It should also be noted that the terms “include”, “comprise” and any other variants mean to cover the non-exclusive inclusion. Thereby, the process, method, article, or device which include a series of elements not only include those elements, but also include other elements which are not clearly listed, or include the inherent elements of the process, method, article and device. Without further limitation, the element defined by a phrase “include one . . . ” does not exclude other same elements in the process, method, article or device which include the element.
A person skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the specification may be provided as a method, a system, or a computer program product. Therefore, one or more embodiments of the specification can use a form of hardware only embodiments, software only embodiments, or embodiments combining software and hardware. Moreover, one or more embodiments of the specification may use a form of a computer program product that is implemented on one or more computer-usable storage media (including but not limited to a disk memory, a CD-ROM, an optical memory, and the like) that include computer-usable program code.
One or more implementations of the specification can be described in the general context of computer executable instructions executed by a computer, for example, a program module. Generally, the program module includes a routine, a program, an object, a component, a data structure, and the like for executing a particular task or implementing a particular abstract data type. One or more embodiments of the specification can also be practiced in a distributed computing environment in which tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are connected through a communication network. In a distributed computing environment, the program module may be located in both local and remote computer storage media including storage devices.
The embodiments of the specification are all described in a progressive manner. For same or similar parts in the embodiments, reference may be made to these embodiments. Each embodiment focuses on a difference from other embodiments. Especially, a system embodiment is basically similar to a method embodiment, and therefore is described briefly; for related parts, reference may be made to partial descriptions in the method embodiment.
The foregoing descriptions are merely embodiments of the specification and are not intended to limit the specification. For a person skilled in the art, various modifications and variations can be made to the specification. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made without departing from the spirit and principle of the specification shall fall within the scope of the claims of the specification.
