COMPUTING SERVICE MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

A management apparatus includes: a service information acquisition unit that acquires resource information indicating an available resource of a computer, and acquires service information including a target sensor that acquires data to be used by a target service, a required resource for the target service, and a target controller that executes control by the target service; and an arrangement measurement unit that set a computer that covers the required resource by the available resource as a candidate computer, calculates, for a candidate course, which is a combination of an input course from the target sensor to the candidate computer and an output course from the candidate computer to the target controller, a total cost for causing data to be used by the target service to flow, by considering a path through which the data to be used by the target service is caused to flow by a co-existing service.
