Device edge works well for low-power, distributed scenarios like sensors or smart devices where decisions need to happen instantly with no upstream dependency. On-premises edge is the better choice when workloads require more compute than a single device can deliver but still need to stay close to the source, such as a factory floor or retail location. The split usually comes down to processing intensity and the practical limits of device-side hardware.
