Service node, network, and method for pre-fetching for remote program installation
First Claim
1. A method for implementing package pre-fetching for remote program installation, the method comprising:
- receiving a package request for a package required for an installation of an operating system and at least one peripheral application thereof from a computing node;
determining a package request sequence by which the computing node issues at least one package request according to a type of the computing node, so as to pre-read a subsequent package into a cache before the computing node issues a request for the subsequent package;
storing identification information of each computing node in the computing node type database in an association with a computing node type; and
searching for a corresponding computing node type in the computing node type database in order to determine the package request sequence.

Abstract
A system for package pre-fetching for a remote program installation includes a service node having a processor, a computing node type database, and a cache, the service node being configured to receive at least one package request for a package required for an installation of an operating system and at least one peripheral application thereof from a computing node, and determine a package request sequence by which the computing node issues the at least one package request according to a type of the computing node. In another embodiment, a method includes receiving a package request from a computing node, and determining a package request sequence by which the computing node issues at least one package request according to a type of the computing node, so as to pre-read a subsequent package into a cache before the computing node issues a request for the subsequent package.

9. A system for package pre-fetching for remote program installation, the system comprising:
-
a service node comprising a processor, a computing node type database, and a cache, the service node being configured to; receive at least one package request for a package required for an installation of an operating system and at least one peripheral application thereof from a computing node; determine a package request sequence by which the computing node issues the at least one package request according to a type of the computing node; store identification information of each computing node in the computing node type database in an association with a computing node type; and search for a corresponding computing node type in the computing node type database in order to determine the package request sequence.
