The present invention discloses a data stream distribution method and apparatus. In the method, a load balancer may access data in a data stream according to an instruction in a distribution rule that is sent by an application server according to an interface protocol or configured on the load balancer according to an interface protocol; determine, according to a keyword generated according to the accessed data, an application server that processes the data stream; and send the data stream to the determined application server. Therefore, the load balancer may access the data in the data stream according to an instruction in a common distribution rule, to distribute the data stream, thereby reducing complexity of data stream distribution performed by the load balancer.

Data stream distribution method and apparatus

This application provides a data processing method and apparatus. The method includes: receiving, by a first VNFC a first data packet and a flow label of the first data packet that are sent by a second VNFC, where the flow label is generated by the second VNFC according to flow information of the first data packet or is received by the second VNFC from a third VNFC; and selecting, by the first VNFC according to the flow label, a first processing node configured to process the first data packet, where the first processing node is a processing node in the first VNFC. By means of the method in this application, system consumption can be reduced, and processing efficiency of a data packet can be improved.
