This paper aims to propose briefly a service-oriented model for the Internet of things in an Industry 4.0 context. Also, discusses challenges of this new revolution, also known as Industry 4.0, addressing the introduction of modern communication and computing technologies to maximize interoperability across all the different existing systems. Moreover, it will cover technologies that support this new industrial revolution and discuss impacts, possibilities, needs, and adaptation.
