Embodiments of the present invention relate to the communications field, and in particular, to a data scheduling and switching method, apparatus, and system. A data packet is distributed to an optical switching unit or an electrical switching unit for switching by using a control policy, and the optical switching unit and the electrical switching unit are used, so that an optical switching resource and an electrical switching source can be better scheduled in a comprehensive manner, and a switching bottleneck of an electrical switching device is overcome. The data packet may be switched by using an electrical packet switching module of the data switching apparatus, or may be switched by using an optical packet switching module. In this way, a switching capacity of a large-capacity core switching apparatus may be greatly improved. |
