The world is running out of IPv4, but don't rush to grab the little that left IPv4, you're better off turning to IPv6.
However, the two internet protocols are not interoperable, and it will going to be a challenge to ensure that network enable to talk each other.
The big difference between IPv4 and IPv6 is that the former allocates 32 bit IP addresses to devices, while the IPv6 has 128 bit available.
"There are 340 trillion trillion trillion IPv6 addresses, so everyone in the world will be able to have one." At the same time, "Businesses don't need to worry about not getting one, but they do need to be concerned if they investing money in hardware that will need to be updated in just a few years."(Applying IPv6 will need to spent the cost on hardware too)
DUAL STACK
Since, IPv4 and IPv6 is interoperable, and to make sure the company can work with the two protocols. It's possible to use "DUAL STACK" devices, so that it able to programmed to work with both protocols. At the same time, use "TRANSLATION" in which device the accepts requests from IPv6 and convert to IPv4 to send IPv4 destination.
