Techniques are provided for resource allocation and provisioning in a multi-tier edge-cloud virtualization environment. An exemplary method comprises: obtaining an application request for processing a given data type in a multi-tier environment; processing application requests received within a decision window to allocate resources for virtual nodes to process the application requests received within the decision window, wherein the allocated resources for each virtual node is on a corresponding one of cloud resources and a given edge node; instantiating the allocated virtual nodes to process the application requests; and providing the application requests to the instantiated virtual nodes, wherein the instantiated virtual nodes obtain the data of the given data type from a data repository. The virtual node waits to process a given application request for output data of any predecessor requests and sends the output data of the given application request to any additional virtual nodes holding successor requests to the given application request.
