What is the realistic cost profile of moving to edge computing?

Edge typically trades centralized capex for a more distributed capex and operational expense profile, with savings on bandwidth and cloud egress fees offset by hardware refresh cycles at multiple sites. The honest answer is that the first deployment is rarely the cheapest option on paper, but it pays back when latency-sensitive workloads scale or when transit costs become the dominant line item. Most CIOs we work with model a three-year TCO that includes site costs, network, refresh, and managed service overhead before approving.
