Analysis of the requirements for offering industrie 4.0 applications as a cloud service

Industrie 4.0 introduces a concept of digitalized production by allowing agile and flexible integration of new business models while maintaining manufacturing costs and efficiency at the reasonable level. In addition, cloud computing is one of the IT trends that is used nowadays to offer services on demand from a virtual environment in enterprise and office areas. The use of cloud computing in an industrial automation domain in order to offer on-demand services, such as alarm flood management or control as a service, is a promising solution. This study examines how the cloud-based applications can meet the Industrie 4.0 requirements concerning security, communication, self-configuration, reliability, and asset administration shell. Moreover, research challenges and existing gaps that need further investigation are identified and discussed.
