Abstract: According to one embodiment, a routing destination evaluation apparatus includes a metrics acquisition unit and a routing destination evaluation unit. The metrics acquisition unit acquires time-series data of types of metrics associated with a candidate. The candidate is one of candidates of a routing destination to which the routing control apparatus routes a request including the first destination data. The routing destination evaluation unit evaluates the candidates based on the time-series data, and generates routing destination evaluation data.

Abstract: A policy determination apparatus according to a first aspect of the present invention includes an evaluation unit and a policy determination unit. The evaluation unit evaluates candidates of routing destinations to which a routing control apparatus routes requests, based on time-series data of types of metrics and priorities assigned to the types of metrics to generate routing destination evaluation data, where the types of metrics is generated based on monitoring data relating to the states of facilities on a network and are associated with the candidates. The policy determination unit determines a policy that the routing control apparatus uses for control of the routing destinations after the routing destination evaluation data is generated.
