To provide an information processing apparatus, traffic variation estimation method and program, wherein estimation accuracy in estimating traffic variation in a communication path between communication devices constituting a network can be improved.
This invention relates to an information processing apparatus connected with a network to which communication devices are connected by a first communication path directly connecting the communication devices or by a second communication path indirectly connecting the communication devices, comprising: a communication unit; a variation information derivation unit for deriving, for each communication device, variation information based on first information indicating throughput of traffic in a receiving communication device; a configuration information derivation unit for deriving, for each communication device, configuration information based on second information indicating a connection state of the receiving communication device; and an estimation unit for estimating traffic variation for each first communication path so as to further reduce the number of first communication paths on which traffic is varied, based on the variation information and the configuration information.
