A technique is described for storing data from a database across a plurality of data storage devices, wherein each data storage device is capable of being accessed only by a corresponding computer system in a group of interconnected computer systems. In accordance with the technique, an identifier of the database is received. An identifier of a storage tier instance is also received, wherein the storage tier instance comprises a logical representation of one or more storage locations within each of the data storage devices. Responsive to the receipt of the identifier of the database and the identifier of the storage tier instance, data from the database is stored in two or more of the storage locations logically represented by the storage tier instance, wherein each of the two or more storage locations in which data is stored is within a corresponding one of the data storage devices.
