Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and apparatus for allocating storage resource of video cloud storage, applicable to a management node in a storage cluster. The method comprising: receiving a video data storage request from a client; obtaining a queue of allocable storage nodes according to an encoder identifier contained in the request; determining if the request is sent for the first time according to the encoder identifier, if so, selecting from the queue of allocable storage nodes a target storage node allocable as a write node according to a stress estimation algorithm; or otherwise, selecting from the queue a target storage node allocable as a write node according to the number of current writes of each of the storage nodes in pre-recorded node synchronization information and the stress estimation algorithm; and feeding back address information of the target storage node to the client. Embodiments of the present disclosure allow storage loads of a cloud storage system to be balanced.
