A computer-implemented method includes determining how to translate between a primary schema and each of two or more native schemas of two or more cloud providers. The primary schema defines one or more access methods for accessing a plurality of cloud resources of the cloud providers. A request is received for a first cloud resource of the plurality of cloud resources, where the first cloud resource is provided remotely by a first cloud provider, and where the request complies with the primary schema. The request is converted into a translated request in compliance with a first native schema of the first cloud provider. The translated request is submitted to the first cloud provider. A response is received from the first cloud provider. The response includes a cloud resource of the plurality of resources, and the response complies with the first native schema of the cloud provider. The response is returned.
