APNS Send notifications from multiple servers

I am writing an iOS application which will be sent notifications over APNS from backend servers.

Can I configure multiple servers to connect to APNS and send notifications? If so, is there a limit on the number of servers which can send notifications for a single application?

I can't find any details about this on the Apple site (e.g. http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/ApplePushService/ApplePushService.html)

+1 A:

Yes, you can have multiple servers (Providers) connected to the APNS to send notifications to the same application, and no, there is no limit on how many. You just have to have the same APNS certificate on all of them.

Do you know if the lack of a limit is documented anywhere? I have previously been told that there was a limit of 6 servers but the person who told me this couldn't back this up with a source.

No. I assume that if there would be a limit (I fail to see any reason there would be), it would be thoroughly documented. Especially since the docs says "You may establish multiple, parallel connections to the same gateway or to multiple gateway instances.".

OK - Thanks for the info :)
