Abstract: Methods and systems for a networked storage environment are provided. An object index for storing object identifiers is generated for uniquely identifying a plurality of resources represented by a plurality of objects for providing storage services in a networked storage environment. The object index configured to maintain relationship information between the plurality of objects. In response to a request for information regarding a resource received by an application programming interface (API) module; object identifiers from the object index are obtained to respond to the request, where the object identifiers identify a requested object and a related object whose information is stored at the object index. Then configuration information and performance data for the requested object and the related object are obtained from a storage device and provided to the API module.
