SoftLayer has announced its new storage and back up service, according to media reports.
The new service, dubbed StorageLayer, uses multiple storage technologies in a unified solution format.
StorageLayer includes File Transfer Protocol, Network Attached Storage and iSCSI technologies.
Sam Fleitman, chief operating officer at SoftLayer, said: "StorageLayer takes a different approach to storage and backup than other providers' solutions.
"Instead of focusing on the hardware, we focused on what data our customers store and how they prefer to access and transfer it. No single storage solution provides every option they need, or performs every task perfectly. So we brought multiple solutions together to create a single StorageLayer."
He added that StorageLayer's design enables it to provide "exceptional data-protection and connectivity".
