MPush is an open-source real-time message push system written in Java on Netty, with a modular server, SDKs for Android, iOS, Java, and JavaScript, and cluster support via ZooKeeper and Redis. It provides secure TCP long-connection push with RSA-based handshake encryption, reconnection handling, and HTTP proxying.

Use cases

• send push notifications to android and ios apps from my own server
• self-hosted open source push notification service
• build an instant messaging backend with tcp long connections
• real-time message delivery to mobile clients over tcp
• clustered push server with load balancing
• iot device message push over tcp

When to choose

• you want a fully open-source, self-hosted push system with mobile SDKs
• you need clustered, load-balanced push backed by ZooKeeper and Redis
• you want encrypted, low-latency TCP push with weak-network reconnection

When to avoid

• you only need simple FCM/APNs relay push rather than a custom TCP protocol
• you need an actively developed project - releases have been sparse since 2022
• your stack is not JVM-based on the server side
