Abstract
Availability and diversity of cloud service providers (CSPs) had put the users into confusion for its selection of the appropriate service providers. Some cloud service providers are good at some services while others are good at offering other services. The selection of an appropriate cloud service is one of the multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) problems that became a critical issue of public concern in the uncertain cloud industry. Based on multiple criteria, various multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods can be used for the selection of the best CSPs. Researchers considered MCDM techniques as the best methodology for deciding cloud rank. The paper presents a set of decision criteria and their sub-criteria required for evaluating CSPs. The main goal of this paper is to prese
