Recently, we have witnessed numerous benefits ofexploiting Cloud Computing models and technologies in thecontext of the Internet of Things and Edge Computing. However, utility-based provisioning paradigm, one of the most importantproperties of Cloud Computing, is yet to be realized in emergingIoT Cloud systems. In this paper, we introduce a novel middleware, which provides comprehensive support for multi-levelprovisioning of IoT Cloud systems. The main features of ourmiddleware include: i) A generic, light-weight resource abstractionmechanism, which enables application-specific customizationof Edge devices, ii) Support for automated provisioning of Edgeresources and application components in a logically centralizedmanner, via dynamically managed APIs, and iii) Flexible provisioningmodels that enable self-service, on-demand consumptionof the Edge resources. We evaluate our middleware using real-lifeapplications in the domain of building management systems.
