I'd say there are colloquial and technical definitions of the word. Colloquially people have taken to referring to servers not their own, particularly operated by Amazon/Google/Microsoft, as "the cloud", such as OneDrive and Google Drive. I might even use the word colloquially sometimes. But when technical precision is needed, "cloud" refers to virtual resources on shared hardware.

Applied to this particular context, the colloquial interpretation doesn't make any sense whereas the technical interpretation does.
