Data synchronization method, compute device, and compute device cluster

A first compute device, wherein the first compute device comprises a first processor and a first transceiver, and wherein:

• the first processor is configured to transmit, before obtaining first data, a synchronization preparation request to the first transceiver, wherein the synchronization preparation request indicates the first transceiver to perform a data synchronization operation based on the first data;
• the first transceiver is configured to perform, based on the synchronization preparation request, a preparation operation for the data synchronization operation;
• the first processor is further configured to transmit, after obtaining the first data, a synchronization initiation request to the first transceiver, wherein the synchronization initiation request indicates the first transceiver to initiate the data synchronization operation;
• the first transceiver is further configured to send a notification to a second transceiver based on the synchronization initiation request, wherein the notification indicates that the first transceiver is capable of performing the data synchronization operation, and wherein the second transceiver belongs to a second compute device that is configured for data synchronization with the first compute device;
• and
• the first transceiver is further configured to perform the data synchronization operation after all transceivers in multiple compute devices that are configured to perform data synchronization with the first compute device are capable of performing the data synchronization operation.
