My early career in the late 1990s was in telecommunications. I worked for a company called Nortel Networks before I pivoted to become a global road warrior / consultant during the .com boom.
Back then a “cloud” on a network diagram was often meant to depict the Sprint frame relay network. Times have changed a bit since then and “cloud computing” became “the cloud” we know today.
