Abstract

A method and apparatus for dequeuing data are disclosed. The method includes: obtaining storage addresses of packets in each queue, and dequeuing, by multiple dequeue processing engines, the packets in each queue in parallel according to the storage addresses of the packets in each queue. Multiple dequeue processing engines dequeue the packets in multiple queues in parallel, and thus the data dequeue efficiency and performance are improved.
