THE INTERNET AND CLOUD STORAGE
The term “cloud computing” means performing computer tasks using services provided over the Internet. In cloud computing a company's data and applications are stored at an offsite data center that is then accessed via the Internet (the cloud).
Pros Of Cloud Storage

- Advantage #4: Scalability. ...
- Advantage #5: Security. ..
- Disadvantage #1: Lack of total control. ...

The name comes from the fact that the data gets stored on servers - in the cloud. So, I guess it's safe to assume that the cloud is a slang term used by tech industry people to describe the servers and networking infrastructures that allow users to store and access data through the internet.
