Types of push requests
Applications can send two types of push requests:

• specifying a reliability mode for the push submission
• specifying a deliver-before time stamp for the push
submission
• requesting a result notification of the push submission
• specifying a deliver-after time stamp for the push
submission
RIM pushes are stored in RAM. Undelivered RIM
pushes might be lost if the server reboots.
PAP • sending a server-side push submission

• specifying a deliver-before time stamp for the push
submission
• requesting a result notification of the push submission
