First embodiment

In order to solve the problem that running of an application is not smooth when the application is tried through a virtual environment established by a remote connection server in the prior art and the problem that the application trial speed is slowed due to shortage of memory resources in the application running process of a virtual machine, the embodiment provides an application trial control method, which can be specifically shown in fig. 4, wherein fig. 4 is a basic flow chart of the application trial control method provided by the first embodiment of the present invention, and the application trial control method includes:

s401, receiving a remote operation instruction sent by a client to a target application which is tried currently, wherein the remote operation instruction comprises a target application operation performed on the target application.

In this embodiment, before receiving a remote operation instruction sent by a client to a currently tried target application, the method further includes: the client (namely, the terminal) establishes connection with the application trial platform server, and the server receives a target application selection instruction sent by the terminal, wherein the target application selection instruction may include identification information of a target application or unique identification information of the terminal. The trial platform server can determine the target application to be operated in at least one trial application provided by the server according to the received target application identification information, and meanwhile, the identification information of the target application sent by the terminal can be associated with the unique identification information of the terminal, namely, the terminal and the target application are in one-to-one correspondence, in the subsequent trial process, the trial platform server can determine the target application only according to the unique identification information of the terminal and the associated information of the target application and the terminal, and the target application does not need to be determined in a plurality of trial applications provided by the server according to the target application identification information.

It is understood that the application provided by the trial platform server may be incompatible in some terminals, and thus, in this embodiment, the application selection instruction may carry the device parameter information of the terminal in addition to the application identification information for determining the target application to be run and the unique identification information of the terminal. The server can determine whether the target application to be tried can run on the terminal equipment according to the equipment parameter information of the terminal, and sends prompt information to the terminal when determining that the application to be tried can not run normally on the terminal. For example, according to the device parameters of the terminal, it is known that the application to be tried cannot normally run on the terminal due to system limitations of the terminal device, a prompt message is sent to the terminal to prompt the user that the application to be tried cannot normally run on the terminal, and the user selects whether to continue to try the application to be tried or not.

S402, determining whether a preset cache database has result page data corresponding to target application operation of the target application, wherein at least one application operation of at least one application to be tried and the result page data corresponding to the application operation are stored in the cache database in advance.

If yes, executing S403; if not, go to S404.

In this embodiment, after the received target application operation of the target application, the search is performed in the preset cache database, and it is determined whether the preset cache database has the target application and the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application. It can be understood that before searching, whether the target application operation is an application closing operation can be further judged, and if yes, the closing operation of the target application can be directly executed; if not, then searching whether result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application exists in a preset cache database.

It can be understood that, the cache database in this embodiment is preset before the application trial platform server establishes a connection with the terminal, the number or the type of the applications to be tried cached in the cache database may be flexibly set by a server designer according to experience, and the setting manner may be various, and the setting manner may include, but is not limited to, what is mentioned in the following examples. In some examples, one application trial platform server may set up a plurality of virtual machines, each virtual machine is provided with a cache database in advance, and the trial platform server may cache a certain type of application to be tried in the virtual machine, may cache a plurality of types of applications to be tried in one virtual machine, and may cache all applications to be tried that the trial platform server may provide in the virtual machine. Of course, the trial platform may also be composed of a plurality of servers, each server provides one type of application to be tried, and the server may set up one or more virtualizations to cache the applications to be tried provided by the server.

It can be understood that, in the cache database of this embodiment, at least one application operation of at least one application to be tried and result page data corresponding to the application operation are stored in advance. The application to be tried stored in the preset cache database may be a trial application with a trial frequency greater than a preset trial frequency threshold, or may be a trial application with a trial duration greater than a preset duration threshold, and for the application operation of the application to be tried stored in the cache database, the application operation with an operating frequency greater than a preset operating frequency threshold may be used. Of course, the preset trial frequency threshold, the preset duration threshold, and the operating frequency threshold may be set by the application platform designer based on experience.

It should be noted that, because most users only operate a few pages and actions during the trial process, the caching of the page of the application to be tried may be to cache only the first page of the application to be tried, or cache the page of the application to be tried that is most frequently accessed by the user, or, of course, cache all the pages of the application to be tried when the cache database still has a large cache space.

Because the data that can be cached in the cache database is also limited, in order to ensure the caching efficiency and save the caching space, it can be understood that the trial platform server can dynamically update the cache database according to statistics of the trial application of the user. In some examples, the trial platform server may cache the application and the page most concerned by the user in the cache server according to statistics of the user trial application, and of course, may delete the page that is not frequently tried or accessed by the user from the cache database according to statistics of the user trial application to release the cache space. Meanwhile, in order to ensure that the user sees the latest page in the trial process, the trial platform server can update the cache database according to the update request from the application server, and even can correspondingly update the cache database according to the feedback information of the terminal user. In some examples, when a trial application provided by the trial platform server has version update or page update, the application server may send an application update request to the trial platform server, where the application update request may be a version update request or a page update request, and the application update request may also include data used for updating a version or performing page update, and when receiving the application update request sent by the application server, the trial platform server may search, in the cache server, whether data of a page to be updated of the trial application to be updated is cached in the cache database, and update the corresponding trial application when it is determined that the data of the page to be updated of the trial application to be updated is cached in the cache database.

S403, when it is determined that the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application exists in the preset cache database, extracting the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application from the cache database.

In this embodiment, when the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application is found in the preset cache database, the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application is directly extracted from the cache database.

S404, acquiring result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application according to a preset mode.

In this embodiment, after it is determined that the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application does not exist in the cache database, the result page corresponding to the target application operation of the target application may be obtained in a preset manner. It can be understood that the above-mentioned manner of extracting the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application from the cache database is a default manner in this embodiment, and the preset manner is a manner used for solving a case where the result page data cannot be obtained through the default manner. In some examples, the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application cached in the cache library of the other trial platform servers may be called, the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application may be obtained through a resource sharing platform established between the trial platform servers, the target application operation may be executed by running the target application through the virtual machine, and the operation result page data may be obtained. Of course, when the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application is not found in the preset cache database, the data may be obtained according to the above mentioned preset manner, and the obtained data may be cached in the cache database of the application trial platform server.

And S405, sending the extracted result page data to the client.

And sending the obtained result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application to the terminal.

In the application trial control method provided in this embodiment, whether result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application exists is searched in a preset cache database according to a remote operation instruction sent by the client to the currently tried target application, and when it is determined that the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application exists in the preset cache database, the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application is extracted from the cache database, and the extracted result page data is sent to the client. Therefore, in this embodiment, when it is determined that the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application exists in the preset cache database, the result page data corresponding to the target application operation of the target application is directly extracted from the cache database and sent to the user, and the memory running application does not need to be consumed in the virtual environment built by the server, so that the user can try the application at a higher speed, and the occupation of the memory resources of the virtual machine of the server is reduced. In addition, in this embodiment, when the application to be tried provided by the server is updated and the application to be tried has a cache in the cache database, the application interface corresponding to the page to be updated of the application to be tried is called to obtain new page data, and the obtained new page data is updated in the cache database, so that the latest page is seen in the trial process, a user has better trial experience, and the satisfaction of the user is improved.

The target application selection instruction may include identification information of the target application, and may also include unique identification information of the terminal. The trial platform server can determine the target application to be operated in at least one trial application provided by the server according to the received target application identification information, and meanwhile, the identification information of the target application sent by the terminal can be associated with the unique identification information of the terminal, namely, the terminal and the target application are in one-to-one correspondence, in the subsequent trial process, the trial platform server can determine the target application only according to the unique identification information of the terminal and the associated information of the target application and the terminal, and the target application does not need to be determined in a plurality of trial applications provided by the server according to the target application identification information.

It is understood that the application provided by the trial platform server may be incompatible in some terminals, and thus, the application selection instruction may carry the device parameter information of the terminal in addition to the application identification information for determining the target application to be run and the unique identification information of the terminal. The server can determine whether the application to be tried can run on the terminal equipment according to the equipment parameters of the terminal, and sends prompt information to the terminal when determining that the application to be tried can not run normally on the terminal. Of course, the sent prompt information may pop up a text prompt on the user operation interface, specifically, refer to fig. 6, where fig. 6 is an interface schematic diagram of the terminal prompt interface provided in this embodiment, and meanwhile, the prompt information may also be a prompt sent to the user by voice or in an icon or picture manner.

Meanwhile, the cache database caches most of the pages frequently accessed by the user and frequent operations, and the memory resource of the virtual machine is rich, so that the pages which are not cached in the cache database can still be returned to the user at a higher speed.

Third embodiment

For better understanding of the present invention, the implementation of the present invention is described with reference to a more specific example of a cache database provided by an application trial platform server, please refer to fig. 1, where fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an optional trial platform server for implementing various embodiments of the present invention: comprises a processor 101, a memory 105, and a communication bus 102; the communication bus 102 is used for realizing connection communication between the processor 101 and the memory 105; the memory 105 is configured to store one or more programs, the processor 101 is configured to execute the one or more programs stored in the memory to implement the steps in fig. 7, and fig. 7 is a detailed flowchart of an application trial control method according to a third embodiment of the present invention, where the application trial control method includes:

s701, recording the application trial by the user, the operation in the application trial process and the page corresponding to the operation.

In this embodiment, when the user tries the application on the application trial platform, the processor 101 calls the memory 105 to number the application trial by the user, the operation in the application trial process, and the page corresponding to the operation, and records the data of the application trial currently by the user, the operation in the application trial process, and the page corresponding to the operation by using the number, specifically, may number all the pages of the application trial by the user and the application trial. For example, the number format of the application tried by the user may be set as the application ID, and the number format of all pages of the trial application may be set as the application ID _ page ID. Referring to table 1, the numbers of the respective trial applications and the top pages of the trial applications are shown, and it should be understood that the number shown in table 1 is only one example of the numbers of the partial trial applications and the top pages of the corresponding trial applications, and is not the only embodiment.

TABLE 1

Application on trial	Trial application number	Trial application home page number
			XX	1	1_1
XXX	2	2_1
			XXXX	3	3_1

It can be understood that, after the terminal and the trial platform server are successfully connected, the process of trying the application through the virtual environment set up by the trial platform server is substantially a remote control: the application trial platform server sends the virtual environment desktop to the terminal, the user performs trial operation according to the virtual environment desktop obtained by the terminal, the terminal sends operation event (clicking or long pressing) information and operation coordinate information of the user to the application trial platform server, and the processor 101 judges the operation of the user by analyzing the operation event information and the operation coordinate information. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, in addition to numbering the application tried by the user and all pages of the trial application, all operations of the trial application may also be numbered. Specifically, referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a first interface schematic diagram of the terminal interface provided in this embodiment, when the user clicks any position in the dotted line area 801, the terminal collects click event information and coordinate information of the click position of the user, and sends the click event information and the coordinate information to the application trial platform server, and the application trial platform server determines that the operation of the user is to open a home page of the application XXXX by analyzing the operation event information and the operation coordinate information. Specifically, referring to fig. 9 and table 2, fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of a second interface of the terminal interface provided in this embodiment, where table 2 is a number of a certain trial application, a trial application home page, and an application operation selectable for the home page, it should be understood that the number given in table 2 is only one example of a number of a selectable application operation for a certain trial application home page, and is not an exclusive implementation manner. For example, when a user clicks any position in the a901 area, the terminal acquires click event information and coordinate information of a click position of the user, and sends the click event information and the coordinate information to the memory 105 of the application trial platform server for recording, the processor 101 may obtain that the application operation number is 1 by analyzing the operation event information and the operation coordinate information recorded in the memory 105, that is, it is determined that the user operation is closing the application, and the virtual machine executes an operation of closing the current trial application; when a user clicks any position in the area of a902 (or a903 or a904 or a905 or a906), the terminal acquires click event information and coordinate information of the click position of the user, and sends the click event information and the coordinate information to the memory 105 of the application trial platform server for recording, the processor 101 can obtain an application operation number of 2 by analyzing the operation event information and the operation coordinate information recorded in the memory 105, that is, judge that the operation of the user is a page with an open number of 1_2, when the page with the number of 1_2 is cached in the cache database 1054, extract page data of the page with the number of 1_2 from the cache database 1054, of course, when the page with the number of 1_2 is not cached in the cache database 1054, the virtual machine runs a target trial application, and executes an application operation of the page with the open number of 1_ 2.

TABLE 2

Therefore, in this embodiment, when the target trial application of the user and the operation in the trial application process are determined, whether corresponding data exists in the cache database can be searched through the trial application number, the application operation number in the trial application process, and the page number corresponding to the operation.

S702, counting the most concerned trial applications of the user.

The processor 101 counts the most concerned trial applications by the user according to the record of the memory 105, wherein the most concerned trial applications by the user may be the trial applications with the trial frequency larger than the preset trial frequency threshold, for example, the trial frequency threshold may be set to be that the trial applications are tried for 100 times in 24 hours, and then when the trial frequency of a certain trial application in 24 hours is larger than 100 times, the certain trial application is considered as the most concerned trial application by the user; of course, the trial application most concerned by the user may also be a trial application with a trial duration greater than a preset trial duration threshold, for example, the trial duration threshold may be set to be that the total duration of trial application being tried by each user within 24 hours reaches 100 hours, and then, when the total duration of trial application being tried by each user within 24 hours is greater than 100 hours, the trial application most concerned by the user is determined.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, in addition to counting the trial applications most concerned by the user, the application operations performed by the user most frequently and the pages corresponding to the application operations performed most frequently may also be counted, where the application operations performed most frequently may be the application operations whose operation frequency is greater than the preset operation frequency threshold.

And S703, caching the trial application according to the statistical result.

In this embodiment, the processor 101 may determine whether the trial application satisfies a condition of being updated into the cache database of the memory 105 according to the counted current use frequency or duration of the trial application, and if yes, store the trial application, the target application operation, and the result page data corresponding to the target application operation into the cache database 1054. It is worth mentioning that all data of the trial application most concerned by the user can be cached in the database to ensure that the data of the trial application most concerned by the user cached in the cache database is complete, but most users only operate a few pages and actions in the trial process, and the data of the pages corresponding to the application operation most frequently performed by the user and the application operation most frequently performed by the user can be cached in the cache database to ensure the caching efficiency and save the caching space. It can be understood that, the cache database in this embodiment is preset before the application trial platform server establishes a connection with the terminal, the number or the type of the applications to be tried cached in the cache database may be flexibly set by a server designer according to experience, and the setting manner may be various, and the setting manner may include, but is not limited to, what is mentioned in the following examples. In some examples, one application trial platform server may set up a plurality of virtual machines, each virtual machine is provided with a cache database in advance, and the trial platform server may cache a certain type of application to be tried in the virtual machine, may cache a plurality of types of applications to be tried in one virtual machine, and may cache all applications to be tried that the trial platform server may provide in the virtual machine. Of course, the trial platform may also be composed of a plurality of servers, each server provides one type of application to be tried, and the server may set up one or more virtualizations to cache the applications to be tried provided by the server.

Meanwhile, since the data that can be cached in the cache database is also limited, in order to ensure the caching efficiency and save the cache space, it can be understood that the trial platform server can dynamically update the cache database according to statistics of the trial application of the user. In some examples, the trial platform server may cache the application and the page most concerned by the user in the cache server according to statistics of the user trial application, and of course, may delete the page that is not frequently tried or accessed by the user from the cache database according to statistics of the user trial application to release the cache space.

In addition, in this embodiment, when the trial application provided by the trial platform server has a to-be-updated version or a to-be-updated page, the application server sends an application update request to the virtual machine of the trial platform server, and the virtual machine updates the corresponding trial application according to the application update request, where the application update request may be a version upgrade request or a page update request, and the application update request may further include data for upgrading the version or performing page update. It can be understood that when an application update request sent by an application server is received, whether data of a page to be updated of a trial application to be updated is cached in a cache database or not can be searched in the cache database, and when it is determined that the data of the page to be updated of the trial application to be updated is cached in the cache database, an application interface corresponding to the page to be updated of the trial application to be updated is called to obtain new page data, and the obtained new page data is updated in the cache database.

The application trial control method provided by this embodiment numbers and records the application tried by the user, the operation in the trial application process, and the page corresponding to the operation, counts out the trial application most concerned by the user, and caches the trial application according to the statistical result. Therefore, in this embodiment, all data of the trial application most concerned by the user or data of the page corresponding to the operation performed most frequently by the user and the operation performed most frequently by the user may be cached in the cache database according to the statistical result, so that when the subsequent user performs the same trial operation, the data may be directly extracted from the cache database without occupying the memory resource of the virtual machine itself to run the trial application. In addition, the data corresponding to the infrequently used trial applications or the infrequently operated pages in the cache database can be cleared according to the statistical result, the data in the data are updated when the application to be tried provided by the server is updated, the actual requirements are met, the user experience is paid attention to the greatest extent, and the user satisfaction is improved.

In addition, the present embodiment also provides a computer-readable storage medium, in which one or more computer programs are stored, and the computer programs can be read, compiled and executed by a processor, so as to implement the corresponding method flow. In the present embodiment, a computer program that can implement the application trial control method in the foregoing embodiments is stored in a computer-readable storage medium.
