Abstract: In certain embodiments, a method for providing a unified user interface for managing a plurality of heterogeneous computing environments comprises displaying at least a portion of a framework user interface, the framework user interface comprising common functionality and a standard layout for the unified user interface. A listing of a subset of the heterogeneous computing environments may be displayed. Each of the heterogeneous computing environments may be modeled by one or more objects, each object corresponding to a particular computing environment. The method further includes, in response to an interaction request with respect to a particular computing environment, applying an appropriate plug-in, based on a mapping of the object that corresponds to the particular computing environment to the appropriate plug-in, to perform the requested interaction.
