1. A computing system comprising:
a control circuit configured to:
obtain, over a network, a first communication from a first vehicle by a first channel, the first channel associated with a first communication protocol;
generate ongoing session data associated with the first communication, the ongoing session data defining a first online session between the computing system and the first vehicle over the first channel;
determine, by the control circuit, a network event associated with the first vehicle from the first online session associated with the first communication protocol, wherein the network event is associated with an event timestamp;
in response to determining the network event, generate first session record data associated with the first online session, the first session record data comprising the event timestamp and identifying the first channel; and
output, for storage in a memory, the first session record data in a session history dataset associated with the first vehicle;
wherein the session history dataset associated with the first vehicle comprises at least second session record data for a second online session between the computing system and the first vehicle over a second channel that is different from the first channel, the second channel associated with a second communication protocol that is different from the first communication protocol.
