1. A communication method applied to a computer cluster, wherein the computer cluster is configured to perform distributed computing on graph data, the computer cluster comprises a first computer and a second computer, the first computer is configured to process a vertex in a first vertex set in the graph data, the second computer is configured to process a vertex in a second vertex set in the graph data, the first vertex set comprises a first source vertex, the second vertex set comprises a first destination vertex corresponding to the first source vertex, and the method is applied to the first computer,
the method comprises:
generating information of the first source vertex;
determining the second computer based on pre-recorded mapping relationship information, wherein the second computer is configured to process information of the first destination vertex; and
sending a first communication message to the second computer, wherein the first communication message comprises the information of the first source vertex, so that the second computer updates the information of the first destination vertex based on the information of the first source vertex.
