Abstract
Disclosed are a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request transmission method and device. The HTTP request transmission method and device resolve a problem that data finally obtained through splicing is invalid because dividing an original HTTP request into a plurality of HTTP requests to pull data from different content distribution network (CDN) servers may cause inconsistency of the pulled data. When an electronic device needs to download data from a plurality of CDN servers, an overlapping range may be designed for byte ranges allocated to the different CDN servers. This means that the electronic device downloads data in the overlapping range from all the different CDN servers. Therefore, this part of data is used to check consistency of the data pulled from the different CDN servers. When determining that the data pulled from the different CDN servers is consistent, the electronic device may splice the data to obtain finally required data.
