Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, a method, and an electronic device for the cloud-based configuration of FPGA configuration data. The system includes a control module internal to an FPGA and a storage module external to the FPGA. The storage module is configured to store configuration data transmitted from a cloud, and the control module is configured to retrieve the configuration data from the storage module and to configure a corresponding processing unit of the FPGA according to the configuration data. In the embodiments of the present invention, the control module internal to the FPGA is provided, and configuration data is retrieved from the storage module external to the FPGA to configure the corresponding processing unit of the FPGA. Accordingly, during FPGA data migration, the configuration data stored in the external storage module can be directly migrated by using a general data migration method, thereby implementing live migration of FPGA data.
