Need advice! There is a program that will periodically transmit data to a web server, you need to think about how! I thought by means of DDE - but the technology is outdated ...

Yes, what kind of DDE)
Does the server have an API for receiving data? If not, why not take the WebAPI and write it, since the main web application is in ASP.NET MVC? It will be the simplest, most logical and compatible option, just publish the webpi next to the application (don't forget to authorize).
Of course, there are a lot of other options, for example, if the data comes often and a lot (constant stream), then maybe some protobuf over a normal TCP connection or web sockets is better.
If it is impossible to take and write such a web service for receiving data, then what is possible? What are your restrictions?
