The clients are connected to the messaging server. The system further comprises a global server and query servers. The clients are connected to the query servers and the global server respectively through the messaging server, and the messaging server is connected to the global server through the query servers. The clients transmit user information to the global server through the messaging server, the user information is stored in the global server, and the global server synchronizes the user information to the query servers. When the number of query tasks received by the query servers from the clients exceeds a threshold, the query servers allocate the query tasks exceeding the threshold according to a task processing priority and a task receiving policy. The number of the query servers is at least two.</p> |
