Below is the block diagram to Push Notification in Windows Phone 7. There are three types of Push notification

1. Live Tiles
2. Toast Notification
3. Raw Data

Above diagram is very much self-explanative. There are five steps to perform push notification

1. Application open a HTTP channel with Microsoft Push Notification Service
2. Microsoft Push Notification Service returns a unique URI to application
3. Application sends this URI to custom service usually hosted in Azure
4. Custom service sends data to send as notification and unique Http Channel URI of application to Microsoft push notification service
5. Microsoft push notification service identifies application with unique URI and send the notification.
