Peer to peer systems are not necessarily decentralized. They are decentralized if their traffic does not require access by a third party. Its the difference between Napster and BitTorrent.
In the case of your scenario it could be considered decentralized as you are using cloud storage as merely a storage point, as in a dedicated redundancy, but I am hesitant to consider a dedicate server as a point of decentralization regardless of its intention or access limitations.
