  EPICS ver­sion 4 is a set of soft­ware mod­ules that add to the base of the EPICS toolkit for ad­vanced con­trol sys­tems. Ver­sion 4 adds the pos­si­bil­ity of process vari­able val­ues of struc­tured data, an in­tro­spec­tion in­ter­face for dy­namic typ­ing plus some stan­dard types, high-per­for­mance stream­ing, and a new front-end pro­cess­ing data­base for man­ag­ing com­plex data I/O. A syn­chro­nous RPC-style fa­cil­ity has also been added so that the EPICS en­vi­ron­ment sup­ports ser­vice-ori­ented ar­chi­tec­ture. We in­tro­duce EPICS and the new fea­tures of ver­sion 4. Then we de­scribe se­lected de­ploy­ments, par­tic­u­larly for high-through­put ex­per­i­ment data trans­port, ex­per­i­ment data man­age­ment, beam dy­nam­ics and in­fra­struc­ture data.
