1. A method for providing translations of data retrieved from a storage system in a cloud computing environment, the method comprising: receiving, by an interface object executing on a first physical computing device, from a second physical computing device, a request for provisioning of a virtual storage resource by a storage system; requesting, by the interface object, from a storage system interface object, provisioning of the virtual storage resource; receiving, by the interface object, from the storage system interface object, an identification of the provisioned virtual storage resource; translating, by the interface object, 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; and responding, by the interface object, to the request received from the second physical computing device, with a translation of the received identification.
