This class has several issues and potential improvements:

The send() method uses HTTP GET to send data in the request body, which does not conform to HTTP standards. POST should be used for sending data.
RestTemplate is recreated on each call to send(), which is inefficient. It's better to create a single instance and reuse it.
In the getResponses() method, string concatenation using += in a loop is inefficient; StringBuilder should be used instead.
In the push() method, the "id" field is added to the new data after clearing, but dataId is not explicitly initialized, which could lead to issues.
Error handling during data sending is missing.

Example of a corrected send() method:

private final RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();

private void send() {
    HttpEntity<List<Map<String, Object>>> request = new HttpEntity<>(dataList);
    String url = "http://localhost:20808/msg/incoming";
    ResponseEntity<String> response = restTemplate.exchange(url, HttpMethod.POST, request, String.class);
    responses.put(Instant.now(), response.getBody());
}

Additionally, exception handling and dataId initialization in the constructor should be added.

Thus, the class accumulates data in batches of 100 elements and sends them to the server, storing responses with timestamps.
