我最近了解到iPhone应用程序能够接收几乎即时的通知。
这是以推送通知的形式提供的，这是一种定制的协议，可以保持与iPhone的数据连接，并向应用程序发送二进制数据包，它会以极快的速度弹出警报，从服务器应用程序发送到手机应用程序的响应时间为0.5 - 5秒。这是作为数据而不是SMS发送的，以非常非常小的数据包作为数据计划的一部分收费，而不是作为传入消息。
我想知道，如果，使用Android，有一个类似的设施，或者是否有可能实现接近这个使用Android api的东西。为了澄清，我将相似定义为:
不是短信，而是一些数据驱动的解决方案 尽可能的实时 是否可扩展，即作为移动应用程序的服务器部分，我可以在几秒钟内通知数千个应用程序实例
我欣赏的应用程序可以拉基于，HTTP请求/响应风格，但理想情况下，我不想轮询那么严重，只是为了检查通知;除此之外，它就像滴漏数据计划。

我找不到我在哪里读到它，但我相信gmail利用一个开放的TCP连接来执行电子邮件推送。

They have their listeners which has to be used by you by using their library classes in your code. You need not to bother about pushing. You have to send the message to server server will push the message to the device. They use OAuth. Regarding Protocols, there are two methods using CCS and XMPP. CCS just uses XMPP as an authenticated transport layer, so you can use most XMPP libraries to manage the connection. To send notifications to device you can write code in android app to send as well as your server code. the message sending will be done only by your code. Rest will be taken care by Google Server in GCM case. You can check detail at this link

In case your app is not running then also devices can recieve notification because you have to write code for broadcast listeners. In background it will be listening to server and whenever any message packet will be there it will recieve the message as notification. Android has service you need to not to bother about it. You have only to use those resources using the library class that makes your work easier and let them write if your app is not running then also it recieve notification. Obviously, there would be some listener whick make the app to recieve.Check "Recieve the message" section in this link

它还将接受用户的请求。对于GCM，这就可以了。请勾选“发送信息”

我最近开始在Android上使用MQTT http://mqtt.org，作为一种实现您所要求的方式(即不是SMS，而是数据驱动，几乎是即时消息传递，可伸缩，而不是轮询等)。
我有一篇关于这方面的背景信息的博客文章http://dalelane.co.uk/blog/?p=938
(注意:MQTT是IBM的技术，我应该指出我为IBM工作。)
谷歌正在贬低C2DM，但他们引入了GCM(谷歌云消息)，我认为他们没有任何配额，而且是免费的!不过它确实需要Android 2.2+ !http://developer.android.com/guide/google/gcm/index.html

Why dont you go with the XMPP implementation. right now there are so many public servers available including gtalk, jabber, citadel etc. For Android there is one SDK is also available named as SMACK. This we cant say a push notification but using the XMPP you can keep a connection open between client and server which will allow a two way communication. Means Android client and server both can communicate to each other. At present this will fulfill the need of Push in android. I have implemented a sample code and it really works great
