What is android message push? How is message push generally done?

Android message push is basically implemented in the form of long links. The principle is that the client actively establishes a TCP long link with the server. After the long link is established, the client regularly sends heartbeat packets to the server. In order to maintain the link, when there is a message to be sent, the server can directly send the message to the client through this established long link.

The Android side can implement message push in two ways. One is to build a self-built push platform, but this method is time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly, and the stability and survivability of long links are difficult to guarantee; in addition, One is to directly choose a third-party message push provider like Tui. Developers only need to integrate the personal push message SDK to easily and quickly implement the message push function of the Android platform, effectively improving product activity and increasing user retention. In addition, GePui message push has leading advantages in the industry in terms of basic performance of message push, such as power saving and traffic saving, long link stability, push speed, security, etc.
