Original Abstract Submitted

In order to record communication data via a communication network, in a storage apparatus in accordance with an appropriate data recording method, a data processing apparatus includes: an obtaining unit configured to obtain communication data including one or more packets continuously communicated via a communication network; a recording unit configured to record the communication data in a storage; and a reading processing unit configured to read the communication data from the storage, wherein the recording unit selects a first data compression method from among a plurality of data compression methods based on compression rate for each data compression method, reading speed of the communication data from the storage, and decompression speed of the communication data required from reading of the communication data to decompression of the communication data in accordance with each compression method, and records the communication data in accordance with the first data compression method.
