How about I rephrase the question a little bit?
Let's say I want to read my test e-book on the Kindle for Android app from the cloud, and NOT from sideloading.
Now, let's take it a step further. Let's say I want some other people to be able to download the test e-book from the cloud, so they can proofread it and check to see if it works properly for them.
Where would be the best place to place the test e-book, so that anyone can have access to it?
Thank you! Jd

Sideloading is anyway of getting the data on the device beside the official Amazon delivery mechanisms, so even if you use "the cloud" you are still side loading.
"The cloud" is a very vague term referring to any kind of Internet data storage.
If you have a PARTICULAR could in mind, like Amazon's Cloud Drive, then let us know.
But, for example, Dropbox is cloud storage, too, and that was mentioned in the thread.
Putting a file on your own web site and giving a link to folks would be "cloud storage" as well.
Emailing the doc to your Kindle address and letting it be archived by Amazon (if Kindle for Android allows that.) would also be using "the cloud" though it wouldn't be side loading, as it's one of the 'official' delivery mechanisms."
