1. A method for optimizing and minimizing application traffic in a wireless network, the method comprising:

  • defining an application programming interface (API) for controlling application traffic between an application client residing on a mobile device that operates within a wireless network and an application server not residing on the mobile device; and

    using the API to optimize application traffic in the wireless network including controlling, by the mobile device, traffic sent by the application server to the mobile device, wherein using the API to optimize application traffic includes using the API for;

    providing a subscriber tiering and reporting service having a premium subscriber tier;

    providing delivery notification to a sending entity subscribing to the premium subscriber tier;

    sending a plurality of data packets together as a batch within a defined window of time, wherein the defined window of time is determined by a time criticality of the plurality of data packets;
