Patent number: 12386671Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide example resource allocation methods. One example method includes determining, by a first node, a hash value corresponding to a first cluster. The first node can obtain a hash ring, where the hash ring includes at least one hash value interval, and each hash value interval corresponds to one second cluster. The first node can determine a target second cluster based on the hash value corresponding to the first cluster, where the hash value corresponding to the first cluster belongs to a target hash interval, the target hash interval is a hash value interval in the at least one hash value interval, and the target hash interval corresponds to the target second cluster. The first node can establish an association relationship between the first cluster and a target second cluster, where the target second cluster is allowed to apply for a resource from the first cluster.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2022Date of Patent: August 12, 2025Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yan Zeng, Hui Jiang, Jizhong Li, Min Liu
