Abstract

A method and system for data synchronization between a foreground and a background in an ENUM-DNS are provided.

the background receiving and executing the account opening/cancellation instruction from the external network element; and

the background returning an execution response message to the external network element.

6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the method further comprises:

the service foreground receiving a query request sent by a client;

when local number query is successful, and the status identification of the temporary data storage point indicates there are data in the temporary data storage point, the service foreground querying the temporary data storage point;

the service foreground replacing the query result obtained from the original data storage point with the query result from the temporary data storage point; and

the service foreground returning a query result response message to the client.

7. The method according to claim 6, wherein after the step of performing local number query in an original data storage point according to the query request, the method further comprises:

when local number query is not successful, determining a region to which the queried number belongs;

when the queried number is a local number, determining that whether the status identification of the temporary data storage point indicates there are data in the temporary data storage point;

when the queried number is not a local number, forwarding the query request to an external region or an upper level or subordinate server.

8. The method according to claim 1, wherein before the step of notifying account opening/cancellation record information to a service foreground when an account opening/cancellation instruction from an external network element is successfully executed by the background, the method further comprises:

the service foreground establishing the temporary data storage point;

the background regularly checking the status of the temporary data storage point established by the service foreground and setting the status identification of the storage point; and

when the temporary data storage point of the service foreground is abnormal, the background feeding back a corresponding error reporting response message.

16. The method according to claim 2, wherein the method further comprises:

the service foreground receiving a query request sent by a client;

the service foreground performing local number query in an original data storage point according to the query request;

when local number query is successful, and the status identification of the temporary data storage point indicates there are data in the temporary data storage point, the service foreground queries the temporary data storage point;

the service foreground replacing the query result obtained from the original data storage point with the query result from the temporary data storage point; and

the service foreground returning a query result response message to the client.

17. The method according to claim 3, wherein the method further comprises:

the service foreground receiving a query request sent by a client;

the service foreground performing local number query in an original data storage point according to the query request;

when local number query is successful, and the status identification of the temporary data storage point indicates there are data in the temporary data storage point, the service foreground querying the temporary data storage point;

the service foreground replacing the query result obtained from the original data storage point with the query result from the temporary data storage point; and

the service foreground returning a query result response message to the client.

18. The method according to claim 4, wherein the method further comprises:

the service foreground receiving a query request sent by a client;

the service foreground performing local number query in an original data storage point according to the query request;

when local number query is successful, and the status identification of the temporary data storage point indicates there are data in the temporary data storage point, the service foreground queries the temporary data storage point;

the service foreground replacing the query result obtained from the original data storage point with the query result from the temporary data storage point; and

the service foreground returning a query result response message to the client.

9. A system for data synchronization between a foreground and a background in a Telephone Number Mapping working group-Domain Name System (ENUM-DNS), comprising:

a background and a service foreground, wherein;

the background is configured to notify account opening/cancellation record information to the service foreground when an account opening/cancellation instruction from an external network element is successfully executed; and
