Abstract
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for determining whether to compress data at a source device to transmit to a target device. A determination is made of network bandwidth between the source device and the target device. The source device transmits data to the target device. A determination is made of source available processor resources on the source device and target available processor resources on the target device. A determination is made as to whether to compress data at the source device to transmit to the target device based on the network bandwidth, the source available processor resources, and the target available processor resources. Compression is initiated, on the source device, of the data to transmit to the target device in response to determining that the source device is to compress the data.
