本書主要是在工業4.0環境之中，需要一個雲端平台來針對所有裝置資料進行儲存、分享、運算、分析、展示、整合運用…等廣泛用途，上述這些需求，我們需要一個簡易、方便與擴展性高雲端服務。筆者針對上面需求為主軸，以QNAP 威聯通 TS-431P2-1G 4-Bay NAS主機為標的物，從硬體安裝、設定、到系統建置、網頁伺服器安裝與設定到資料庫管理與建置範例，一步一步以圖文並茂方式呈現出來，主要是給讀者熟悉使用Arduino或其他開發板，再開發物聯網、工業4.0等用途時，針對雲端的運用，可以自行建置一個商業級的雲端服務，其穩定性、安裝困難度、維護成本都遠低於自行組立的主機系統，省下來的時間可以讓讀者專注在開發物聯網、工業4.0等產品有更多的心力。所以本書要介紹台灣、中國、歐美等市面上最常見的雲端伺服器商業產品，並一步一步以圖文並茂方式呈現建置、安裝、設定..等過程，期望讀者可以輕鬆學會這些產品建置技巧，進而在更高端、專業的伺服器安裝與設定上，可以類推學到的建置暨能，往更高的技術層次前進。未來筆者希望可以推出更多的入門書籍給更多想要進入『工業4.0』、『物聯網』這個未來大趨勢，所有才有這個工業4.0』系列的產生。

本書主要是運用RS 485與Modbus RTU的通訊協定，透過簡單易學的單晶片開發板與開發語言，透過一些簡單的例子，進而揭露工業控制一些簡單的思維、開發技巧與實作技術，並結合網際網路與物聯網技術，進入工業控制領域，將產業控制的專業技術，帶到物聯網與智慧生活之中。工業控制領域所需要的專業知識是多方面且跨領域，不但軟體需要精通，硬體也是需要有相當的專業能力，還需要熟悉許多工業上的標準與規範，這樣的複雜，讓工業控制領域的人才非常專業分工，而且許多人數十年的專業都專精於固定的專門領域，這樣的現象，讓整個工業控制在數十年間發展的非常快速，而且深入的技術都建立在許多先進努力基礎上，這更是工業控制的強大魅力所在。筆著希望透過簡單易學的Arduino單晶片/Ameba 8195 AM等相關開發版與C語言，將工業控制的專業技術帶入大眾智慧生活中，並整合物聯網技術、人工智慧、大數據、雲端技術等，進入智慧物聯網的領域，並希望有機會與工業4.0的產業技術互相連接，或許讓不專業的筆者做專業的事，有機會創造出另一種未來的技術火花。
