I know that symmetric keys are better for performance, while asymmetric keys provide better security.
How can I decide which type of key to use in my particular application?
What are the criteria and tests I can use?

The Asymmetric Key Encryption uses dual key managment - Public key for encryption and private key for decryption while symmetric key encryption will use a single key for both. If your business requires you to use dual key managment then you can go for Asymmetric key or else you can settle down with symmetric key.
