, USAAbstract Robustness and resilience are often thought of in terms of a system's capacity to maintainfunctionality in the face of external perturbations. Robustness is one of the major issues forcomplex networks. The robustness of the network is evaluating if the network's normal functionsare affected in case of an external perturbation. Improving the robustness of any network systemrequires analysis of its vulnerability to external perturbations1. The outcome of the analysis wouldbe the solution for random failures or adversarial attacks happening to an element of the network.The main focus of this paper is to study the evolution of evaluating the robustness of complexnetworks, specifically, the vulnerability of the clustering of the network

, maintain, and upgradeprivate data centers and servers. Currently, the main commercial providers of public cloudproviders include Amazon (Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google CloudPlatform, and IBM Cloud.Cloud providers allow customers to share computer hardware, high-capacity storage andcontinually-updated software packages, applications, and pre-built services reducing their needsto buy expensive technologies that may quickly become obsolete. In return, customers pay theircloud providers a subscription fee or pay according to their resource usage. In general, cloudcomputing services can be divided into the following three categories: a) Service as a Software(SaaS); b) infrastructure as a service (IaaS); and c) platform as a service
