Abstract

A network communication method comprises the following steps: a log-in account is acquired from a client; a server list is queried to obtain on-line data of a local server according to the login account, wherein the local server and the client are in the same domain; the client is directed to the local server according to the on-line data of the local server. Moreover, a dispatch server and a server are disclosed in specification.

Claims

1. A network communication method, comprising:

acquiring a log-in account from a client;

querying a server list to obtain on-line data of a local server according to the login account, wherein the local server and the client are in the same domain; and

directing the client to the local server according to the on-line data of the local server.

2. The network communication method as claimed in claim 1, further comprising:

acquiring an access request for ad hoc data from the local server;

querying the server list to obtain on-line data of a service server according to the access request, wherein the service server stores the ad hoc data; and

directing the local server to the service server to access the ad hoc data according to the on-line data of the service server.

3. A network communication method, comprising:

acquiring an access request from a client for ad hoc data;

determining whether the ad hoc data is stored in a local database;

asking a dispatch server to obtain on-line data of a service server when the ad hoc data is not stored in the local database, wherein the service server manages the ad hoc data; and

directing the client to the service server to access the ad hoc data according to the on-line data of the service server.

4. The network communication method as claimed in claim 3, further comprising:

storing the on-line data of the service server in an on-line database.

5. The network communication method as claimed in claim 4, further comprising:

searching whether the on-line data of the service server is stored in the on-line database in response to the access request before the dispatch server is asked; and

acquiring the on-line data of the service server from the on-line database when the on-line data of the service server is stored in the on-line database.

6. A dispatch server, comprising:

means for acquiring a log-in account from a client;

means for storing a server list;

means for querying the server list to obtain on-line data of a local server according to the login account, wherein the local server and the client are in the same domain; and

means for directing the client to the local server according to the on-line data of the local server.

7. The dispatch server as claimed in claim 6, further comprising:

means for acquiring an access request from the local server for ad hoc data;

means for querying the server list to obtain on-line data of a service server according to the access request, wherein the service server stores the ad hoc data; and

means for directing the local server to the service server to access the ad hoc data according to the on-line data of the service server.

8. A server, comprising:

means for acquiring an access request from a client for ad hoc data;

means for determining whether the ad hoc data is stored in a local database;

means for asking a dispatch server to obtain on-line data of a service server when the ad hoc data is not stored in the local database, wherein the service server manages the ad hoc data; and

means for directing the client to the service server to access the ad hoc data according to the on-line data of the service server.

9. The server as claimed in claim 8, further comprising:

an on-line database; and

means for storing the on-line data of the service server in the on-line database.

10. The server as claimed in claim 8, further comprising:

means for searching whether the ad hoc data is stored in the on-line database in response to the access request before the dispatch server is asked; and

means for acquiring the on-line data of the service server from the on-line database when the ad hoc data is stored in the on-line database.
