Spanish term or phrase: nube

Requerido: Columna que especifica qué campos son requeridos
para que el fichero conversor se pueda generar en Nube.

I have a series of entries, like it was a glossary. I'm really not sure what a "nube" is - googling the term "cloud" seems to be used in this area but even so, I have no real idea whats being said.

Is it anything like this:

A column that specifies which fields are required for the file converter to be created using Cloud (assuming its a type of programme) ?

Many thanks :o)

cloud

Explanation:
A cloud-like symbol in a network diagram used to reduce an entire communications network into points of entry and exit. It infers that although there may be any number of switches, routers, trunks, and other network devices within the cloud, the point of interconnection to the cloud (network) is the only technical issue in the diagram. Clouds are often used to depict a WAN (wide area network).

tag cloud / Nube

Explanation:
In my opinion, we'd need a wider context to answere this question properly. Anyway, browsing the web I've found two things:

1- Tag cloud: A Tag Cloud is a text-based depiction of tags across a body of content to show frequency of tag usage and enable topic browsing. In general, the more commonly used tags are displayed with a larger font or stronger emphasis. Each term in the tag cloud is a link to the collection of items that have that tag.

2- There's a Portuguese site called Nube. I know you're translating from Spanish, but it could be an already translated text.

I hope that's been helpful!
