Data distribution method and splitter

A data distribution method, applied to a data distribution system, wherein the data distribution system comprises:

• a splitter, a memory, and multiple threads used for processing data, and each thread corresponds to a cache queue;
• the memory stores a correspondence between a transport layer communications protocol and a distribution table, and stores the distribution table corresponding to each transport layer communications protocol, and each distribution table is provided with a correspondence between identification information of a data stream and a thread in the multiple threads;
• and the data distribution method comprises:
• parsing, by the splitter, a received data packet to determine the transport layer communications protocol to which the data packet belongs;
• acquiring, by the splitter from the data packet, identification information of a data stream to which the data packet corresponding to the determined transport layer communications protocol belongs, wherein the identification information of the data stream is used to differentiate the data stream to which the data packet belongs;
• acquiring, by the splitter from the memory according to the correspondence between the transport layer communications protocol and the distribution table, the distribution table corresponding to the transport layer communications protocol to which the data packet belongs;
• determining, by the splitter according to the correspondence between identification information of the data stream and a thread in the distribution table corresponding to the transport layer communications protocol to which the data packet belongs, a thread corresponding to the data stream to which the data packet belongs;
• and
• sending, by the splitter, the data packet to a cache queue of the thread corresponding to the data stream to which the data packet belongs, so that the thread corresponding to the data stream to which the data packet belongs acquires the data packet from the cache queue.
