Method, apparatus and system for controlling service transmission rate

An apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• memory;
• a receiving module stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to receive specified thresholds, wherein the specified thresholds are determined by:
• adjusting the flow limiting thresholds allocated to service gateways in a service gateway group to specified values to obtain the specified thresholds when a service transmission rate on at least one service gateway in the service gateway group is greater than a flow limiting threshold corresponding to the at least one service gateway, wherein a sum of the specified values on the service gateways is not greater than a bandwidth allocated to the destination address;
• and
• a limiting module configured to limit a local transmission rate of service data to a same destination address based on the specified thresholds.

One or more computer-readable media storing executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform acts comprising:

• acquiring service transmission rate information reported by service gateways in a service gateway group in a distributed environment, the service transmission rate information being used for indicating service transmission rates on the service gateways for a same destination address;
• determining whether the service transmission rates of the service gateways in the service gateway group indicated by the service transmission rate information are greater than respective flow limiting thresholds corresponding to the service gateways;
• adjusting the respective flow limiting thresholds allocated to the service gateways to specified values to obtain specified thresholds when at least one determination result is affirmative;
• and
• sending the specified thresholds to the service gateways.
