Information processing system, information processing method, and recording medium

An information processing system preserves data used in machine learning by distributing the data to a plurality of servers, reads setting information indicating a method of partitioning for cross-validation in the machine learning, specifies, based on the setting information, a validation server that executes the cross-validation among the plurality of servers, and validation data which is data used in the cross-validation, specifies an arrangement of the data in the plurality of servers, specifies deficiency data, which is data that is included in the validation data and that is not stored in the validation server, and causes a server that stores the deficiency data among the plurality of servers to transmit the deficiency data to the validation server, based on an arrangement of the specified deficiency data.
