Edge and cloud are complementary, with edge handling latency-sensitive and local workloads while the cloud manages heavy compute, long-term storage, and orchestration across sites. Most enterprise deployments end up running a hybrid model where edge nodes feed processed or filtered data upstream to the cloud for deeper analysis and reporting.
