A computer-readable recording medium stores a program for causing an apparatus to execute a procedure. The procedure includes: regarding each data in a data set having a key and a value corresponding to the key, calculating a key characteristic value of the data as an index value indicating an existence of the key in the data and another key included in the value based on the value of the key and the value of the other key included in the value; generating a segment in which data blocks of which the calculated key characteristic values are similar to each other are grouped in one group; and setting a storage destination of the data in the generated segment.
