The concept of the cloud-to-things continuum addresses advancements made possible by the widespread adoption of cloud, edge, and IoT resources. It opens the possibility to combine classical symbolic AI and advanced machine learning approaches in a meaningful way. In this paper we present a thing registry and an agent-based orchestration framework which we combine to support semantic orchestration of IoT use cases across several federated cloud environments. We illustrate the approach with a use case from an assisted living scenario.
