Office 365 vs Office 2016 API problems

I have a Delphi application that has been running for years leveraging the Excel APIs (very similar structural calls as in VBA). I have even moved to later versions of Office over the years with no issues. I recently had a user begin running the Delphi application in a cloud with Office 365.

After a time, my Delphi application appears to get terminated with no apparent messaging in my internal logging. It simply states the application has been terminated.

When using a copy of Office locally on the cloud machine, there are no terminations observed.

Are there a possible explanations (possibly cloud office365?) related that could be effecting termination of the application? Timeouts, API client disconnects, etc.?
