I am going to develop a Push notification application in Blackberry (OS 5.0 ,6.0). I did little R-n-D on Blackberry Push notification services.
Covers all the basic Info
https://developer.blackberry.com/develop/platform_services/push_overview.html
Push Essentials VS Push Plus
https://developer.blackberry.com/devzone/develop/platform_services/push_features.html
I have registered for Dummy application
https://www.blackberry.com/profile/?eventId=8121
I installed the Push SDK, Provided by RIm
http://developer.blackberry.com/java/documentation/installing_the_sdk.html#jza1355764941890
Now My question are :
How I integrate the push SDK with my BB Eclipse?
How I test the push notification service?
And what is the difference between BB push Service vs Urban Airship service? I know how to implement Urban Airship BB api ,but this time I don't want to use Urban Airship.
If we implement for live, what is the pricing difference between above mentioned service. Because i have'nt found any pricing doc, that's why I am asking.

Currently I am working on a PWA, and the implementation of Web push notifications using FCM is working only for Android and web on desktop. Does there exist any approach to implement push notifications in IOS devices using Firebase Cloud Messaging? Specifically, can iOS receive push notifications in background mode?
You use it with Firebase or not, web push notifications in iOS has some limitations. Read on what is possible and what is not here.
Now that Microsoft has deprecated Mobile App Services iOS SDK, which is referenced in some of their examples (1.2.4 vs. last 2.2.2), and is transitioning to Azure App Service, there is no clear explanation of what to link to a Swift4 (or Objective-C) Xcode 9 project to modify for the Notification hub name and ListenSharedAccess URL. Please advise with example code an reference documents. This is for iOS app push notification with Azure Notification Hubs as connecting with the backend to register tokens etc., not Xamarin iOS (for which there is an example on MSFT site).
The iOS SDK for Azure Mobile Apps has recently been updated to v3.4.0.
This page has instructions for adding push notifications to your Mobile Apps project. I would recommend the iOS app not know anything directly about your notification hub, but instead send the device's push token to your App Service, which in turn can register the device with the notification hub.
I need to implement the push notification in blackberry webworks I have successfully registered with blackberry and got mail with push notifications credentials. now what is the next step I found all the tutorials for native blackberry but not for phonegap how can I implement that in phonegap

I can't just add comments yet so I'm adding an answer.
You can use the WebWorks Push API within a PhoneGap project https://developer.blackberry.com/html5/apis/blackberry.push.html
Has anybody implemented push notifications for a BlackBerry application?
Yes,
Blackberry provides an example application with the SDK and you can use the material on the blackberry website to see how to implement a push service:

My team needs to send a push notification to BlackBerry devices and know (as soon as possible) whether the push notification got to the app. The BlackBerry Push Plus (as opposed to the BlackBerry Push Essentials) gives us this capability. We now are looking to develop this, but we found out about this company that has support for BlackBerry, iPhone and Android push notifications: Urban Airship. While it's clear that we can send the Push notifications to the BB device using their service, what's not clear is whether there's a way for us to be notified whether the push notification did reach the BlackBerry app.
Urban Airship doesn't currently support the return receipt functionality that BlackBerry Push Plus provides.
You're correct that Urban Airship does support the basic push functionality across the various BlackBerry Push services.
(I work for Urban Airship, feel free to contact us with more specific feedback and details on your use-case if you'd like.)
