1. An information processing apparatus, comprising
a processor, configured to control a communication unit for performing a data communication with an external apparatus by a wireless communication,
wherein the communication unit is configured to transmit transmission data whose destination is designated by an IP address, with the IP address set as the destination,
wherein the information processing apparatus is loaded in a vehicle, and
wherein the processor is configured to:
convert a destination of transmission data whose destination is designated by a URL into an IP address, and cause the communication unit to perform transmission;
acquire a volume of a communication of each IP address performed through the communication unit, and acquire a corresponding relationship between the URL that has been converted and the IP address, and acquire, as a communication volume of each service, a communication volume obtained by aggregating a communication volume of each of the IP addresses for each URL, for a data communication with a corresponding relationship between a URL and an IP address, based on the communication volume of each of the IP addresses and the corresponding relationship;
control a throughput of a data communication with the external apparatus for each service, using at least the communication volume of each service that has been acquired;
set a priority for each service;
predict a future communication throughput using at least the communication volume that has been acquired;
limit, when the future communication throughput falls below a predetermined threshold value, a throughput of a data communication for a service with the priority that has been set to be low, to be less than a throughput of a data communication for a service with the priority that has been set to be higher; and
set a priority of a data communication of a service related to a control of the vehicle to be higher than a priority of a data communication of another service.
