What would be the best method to move data from a PC to a PA website?

I have a PA website and a PC that is working as a data logger (linux machine) I want to grab data from the PC and display it on the web page, what would be the best method of doing so? The PC is behind an access point.

Thank you

Hi Michael,

Can you give some more background about how big the data files are, how frequently you need to move it over, how sensitive/critical is the information etc? Would this wiki post be something that you are looking for?

You can use scp from the datalogger to copy the data to PythonAnywhere and then have your web app read it.
