How does edge computing enhance real-time data processing in large-scale IoT deployments?

I'm trying to understand the role of edge computing within IoT ecosystems. Specifically, how does processing data closer to the sensor layer improve latency, bandwidth usage, and reliability compared to sending everything to a central cloud? Are there trade‑offs in terms of device complexity or security when we push analytics to the edge? Would love to hear experiences or best‑practice guidelines.
