Why is the definition of ‘edge’ becoming more fluid over time?

As more compute, networking, and storage capabilities move closer to users, the line between cloud, edge, and on-premises has blurred to the point that ‘edge’ is best thought of as a design choice rather than a fixed location. Hyperscalers are pushing their footprint outward with regional zones, telcos are turning cell towers into compute sites, and enterprises are putting micro data centers in branch locations. The result is a continuum that gives IT leaders more options but demands clearer architectural discipline.
