Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for signature based distributed inventory caching. In an embodiment of the invention, a for signature based distributed inventory caching includes polling from a centralized management solution an endpoint aggregating state information for different monitored resources, and receiving in response to the polling a signature for one or more of the monitored resources aggregated by the endpoint. The method also includes comparing the received signature to a signature stored in the solution in connection with the endpoint. In response to a determination that the compared signatures differ, the method includes updating a cache in the solution with state information for the endpoint, computing a new signature for the state information, and replacing the stored signature with the new signature. Otherwise the method includes bypassing any updating of the cache.
