Introducing the cloud platform operator (CPO) to manage all kinds of manufacturing services on the cloud service platform, the game strategy selection of the multiple participants in the cloud manufacturing alliance is one of current research hotspots of the cloud manufacturing mode. Based on the game theory, this article elaborates the multi-participants business collaboration process and proposes the game strategy selection framework of the multiple participants in the cloud manufacturing alliance. From the perspectives of the manufacturing resource demander (MRD), the manufacturing resource provider (MRP), and the CPO, the game types are analyzed, the benefit functions are established, the existences of game equilibria are proved, and their corresponding constraint conditions are obtained. Integrating the dominant game strategies of the multiple participants, the dominant combination strategies of the above three game equilibria are proposed and the intersection conditions of Nash equilibrium from the mixed perspective are obtained. A set of experimental data from the practical case is given to prove that the solution space of Nash equilibrium from the mixed perspective is not empty. This research provides the theoretical basis for the landing application of the cloud manufacturing mode and the technical support for the development of the cloud manufacturing service platform. It has the important academic value and the broad application prospects.
