Using low code platforms in block chain technology and its impact on industry 4.0

Digital transformation has become very important, especially with the COVID–19 pandemic affecting the supply chain and working conditions. Digital transformation is the integration of digital technologies according to sectoral needs and, accordingly, the technologies through which workflows, employees' culture are experiencing changes and development. Organizations that do not want to lose their market share with digital transformation need to integrate many technological innovations into their companies. While the companies that can perform this transformation correctly will continue to strengthen, the companies that are far away from this digital transformation and cannot integrate it correctly will continue to suffer losses. Digital transformation is provided by Industry 4.0, Blockchain and no/low-code platforms. In this study, the relationship of blockchain technology with Industry 4.0 and the use of low-code platforms for the development of blockchain technology were investigated. With this, the functioning of kanban cards on low code platforms, the relationship between Industry 4.0 and lean manufacturing, and the effects of digital transformation on the basis of sectors were investigated. In the application part of this thesis study, it was targeted to determine the expectations with from the use of low-code platforms together with Industry 4.0 and blockchain. A research draft has been developed to measure the expectations and benefits of companies from using the blockchain and low code technology together for use in future studies. Studies that can be done by using these technologies in Turkey are suggested. It has been emphasized that the transition of developing countries to digital transformation will take more time than developed countries.
