"Backend" is a loosely used term to describe the database environment
that is used for an application. There is typically a Backend, a
Middle Layer, and a Front End. Any one of these could be a combination
of multiple technologies as well.

For example, a Backend could consist of just one Mysql database or
could potentially be an overarching structure of databases split
across servers around the world. Either way the Backend is typically
the data-store that holds all of the application data, whereas the
middle layer is the technologies used to access the backend data and
the front end (client) is whatever technologies are used to present
the data. (IE Flash, Ajax, HTML/Javascript)

Hope this helps
