Oh well, as I said, I remember back in the day trying to build a Beowulf

"Cloud" is a pretty specific tech that doesn't really tie into clustering, per-se. It's more of a tech for rapidly provisioning/deleting/modifying servers (setting aside other 'cloud' techs like remote storage).

Clustering is either about making virtual machines more available (HA clustering) or making a given task faster (maximizing resources of many hardware nodes). Neither of which really overlap much with 'cloud', though in the virtualization space, some technology is shared.
