Abstract
A method for providing translations of data retrieved from a storage system in a cloud computing environment includes receiving, by an interface object executing on a first physical computing device, a request for provisioning of a virtual storage resource by a storage system. The interface object requests, from a storage system interface object, provisioning of the virtual storage resource. The interface object receives, from the storage system interface object, an identification of the provisioned virtual storage resource. The interface object translates the identification of the provisioned virtual storage resource from a proprietary format implemented by the storage system interface object into a standardized format by accessing an interface translation file mapping each of a plurality of proprietary formats with the standardized format. The interface object responds to the request received from the second physical computing device, with a translation of the received identification.
