Abstract
Firmware cache coherence is described. In embodiment(s), a remote management service can establish a client session with a client device and provide an address that redirects the client device to a firmware download service when the client device initiates a session request with the remote management service. The firmware download service can cache the executable program code, and then initiate a download of the executable program code to the client device when the client device initiates a download request for the executable program code.
