What are the practical drawbacks IT leaders should weigh before committing to an edge strategy?

Edge devices have hard limits on processing power compared to cloud infrastructure, so workloads need to be carefully partitioned to fit what local hardware can actually handle. Hardware failures at remote sites are slower and more expensive to fix because you typically do not have on-site staff at every location. Managing security, compliance, and software updates across a distributed fleet also adds operational complexity that should be costed into the business case before approval.
