Abstract
A data distribution system can select paths easily with flexibility when paths are generated. In the data distribution system, a management device includes a node bandwidth information acquisition unit to acquire and hold information on data transmission-enabled bandwidth of each of the plurality of nodes on the network; a content rate acquisition unit to acquire and hold a bandwidth for content to be distributed; a bandwidth splitting information acquisition unit to acquire and hold bandwidth splitting information, which is a splitting ratio to split the content to be distributed into a plurality of bandwidths; and a connection destination decision unit to determine a connection destination of the content to be distributed, which is split based on the bandwidth split information being held in the bandwidth splitting information acquisition unit.
