Abstract

A relay apparatus according to an embodiment includes a request transmitting unit, a response receiving unit, and a data transmitting unit. The request transmitting unit transmits an acquisition request to a provision apparatus. The response receiving unit receives the second data from the provision apparatus in response to the acquisition request. The data transmitting unit transmits, to the electronic control unit, the second data received from the provision apparatus, thereby causing the electronic control unit to update the first data firstly stored therein with the second data. When the updating has failed, the data transmitting transmits the first data to the electronic control unit, thereby causing the electronic control unit to restore the first data.
