Abstract: A computer-based method for monitoring power generation uses a first computing device including a processor and a memory. The method includes receiving, at the first computing device, controller data from a controller associated with a power generator. The first computing device and the controller are coupled in two-way communication. The method also includes transmitting the controller data to a second computing device associated with monitoring the power generator. The first computing device transmits the controller data in one-way communication to the second computing device.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a system includes an on-site monitoring (OSM) data archival portion having one or more sensors configured to monitor a machine and generate corresponding monitoring data. The system also includes an on-site monitoring (OSM) archiver configured to receive and store the monitoring data collected by the one or more sensors. The system further includes an export service configured to export a portion of the monitoring data from the OSM archiver into one or more compressed files. The system also includes an export background intelligent transfer service (BITS) configured to establish a secure connection and send the one or more compressed files to an off-site location.
