A system and method is provided for a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system and the processing of data collected thereby. An internet gateway chip (140, 240, 340, 440) is included in elements of a CGM system to facilitate direct data communication with cloud network storage (150, 250, 350, 450) thereby communicate and store data of a CGM sensor (110, 210, 310, 410) of the CGM system. The internet gateway chip can be included in a receiver (130, 230, 330), such as an existing wireless receiver and display device of the CGM； in a smart phone or similar device, where the smart phone is also the wireless receiver and display device of the CGM； or in the sensor, such as an existing sensor and/or transmitter (410, 420) of the CGM to facilitate direct data communication between the CGM system and cloud network storage.
